Actual Entry (non editable)
Apocaljpse Now (c) 1982. The player pilots a rescue helicopter and must try to rescue numerous airmen who have parachuted into the sea below. The rescue chopper is under constant attack from enemy helicopters, while sharks swim in the ocean below and will kill any floating airmen they come across. Later levels also have enemy subs and ships all intent on foiling the rescue mission. Players must be careful to avoid the falling wreckage of any enemy helicopters they have just destroyed, and also need to be wary of hitting any parachuting airmen with their 'copter blades, as this will kill the airmen instantly. - TECHNICAL - Main CPU : Zilog Z80 (@ 3.072 Mhz) Sound CPU : Zilog Z80 (@ 1.78975 Mhz) Sound Chips : (2x) General Instrument AY8910 (@ 1.78975 Mhz) Screen orientation : Vertical Video resolution : 224 x 256 pixels Screen refresh : 60.61 Hz Palette colors : 226 Players : 2 Control : Double 8-way joysticks Buttons : 1 - TRIVIA - This pirate version of "Rescue" was named 'Apocaljpse Now' in homage to the 1979 movie 'Apocalypse Now'.
