neotokeo2001 Posted February 29, 2004 Share Posted February 29, 2004 Out in the middle of the known Universe, the Moon of Alcatraz orbits a Dead Planet. Once you are sent to the Moon Prison of Alcatraz you cease to exist to the rest of the Universe. Many enter, but none ever leave. A few have escaped the prison buildings, but where do you go when the whole Moon is the prison?? You don't need to escape Alcatraz, you are trying to get in!! You are a Space Pirate and due to some recent bad business dealings you have a few friends that are enjoying the hospitality of Alcatraz. You can see the Moon out of your ships view screen. There are sentry drones all around the Moon but they pose no barrier to one of your piloting skills. You evade the drones and enter the Moons atmosphere. You see the Prison buildings ahead and look for a way inside. You see an opening ahead and fly your ship in. Welcome to Alcatraz, or as the locals call it.... WELCOME TO THE ROCK!!! the_rock.zip Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even if I haven't played many of your hacks, I really like the way you make up a story for them. It's almost enough to make you think it's a different game.

bjk7382 Posted March 1, 2004 Share Posted March 1, 2004 I like it. I remember playing sky skipper in the emulator a while back, and I played it for about 20 minutes, so this hack will probly get some play. I will post a high score when I get one.

Jerky Posted March 2, 2004 Share Posted March 2, 2004 I like it! I used to play Sky Skipper all the time when I was a kid. This is a neat spin on the original. Good job! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
