Default ECS DOOM Clone
I was asking this before, but came up with the wrong results apparently. There is a game I used to play, I think it was on 8 disks, and it worked with an 68000 ECS machine and was pretty much just like DOOM. Everyone told me it was called Citadel, and that sounded right, but when I look up the game, all I can find is some Mid-Evil point and click dungeon roaming type game that is NOTHING like DOOM.

Anyone know what I am talking about? It was Sci-Fi.

I've got a demo of it on a coverdisk somewhere. The graphics are truly terrible, compared to Doom.

I thought they never finished designing that game?

Well the demo was definitely called Citadel, and I remember the game preview in CU Amiga. You never know, the end product could have been renamed due to a trademark clash or something...

Well, I know a game that would fit your description: It's called "The Citadel" and is available at Back to the roots for download. Afair it didn't really work well on a plain A500 but with a 68020 and some more RAM it's playable, but I didn't like it ...

It's called Citadel. You can download English version of this game from:
http://bored.webzdarma.cz/

and Polish version (Cytadela) from:
http://www.ppa.ltd.pl (section 'Rodzynki').

It wasnt the Only 3d game to work on a500. There was another called DeathMask. Not great, but nethertheless another game. Also sharper textures when run under aga.

Gloom Deluxe also run on ECS with at least 020 cpu.

The Citadel did pretty much amaze me years ago though when i first powered up the demo on my a600

Kool thankx again for all the help everyone, I now have links to not only English, but Polish versions of the game!

Citadel may look like crap, but man did it every impress me back when I was on A600. If you turned down the details it would actually run full speed at almost full screen on a mere 68000. Now that is impressive!

If it's the same Citadel DOOM clone as the one I remember, you won't like it much.

Urgh, definitely. Around that time (94-96) the Amiga got some really bad DOOM clones. Death Mask, Citadel, Testament...to but name a few. None are memorable except for how bad they were.

Genetic Species was really one of the better ones on the Amiga. I recall that reviewers at Amiga Format were so bored of the crap clones they didn't even give GS a chance..."Load it, it's crap, give it 30%, go back to playing Quake."Very sloppy journalism. A pity too, because it didn't deserve that at all. They gave it a fairer review later, but by that time the damage was done...
