Evolva  Interplay Entertainment (Computer Artworks)2000
[84]***Evolva was among the first games that utilized the new T&L technology.***Suffers from severe flickering on GF8800GT and apparently did on cards used only 2-3 years after its release (I think it worked fine with GF2MX and R9500Pro), haven't found a fix for it and the issue is not visible in any screenshots I've taken (somehow the scene syncs perfectly for each screenshot). Twiddling with NV's control panel had no effect either nor the minimal options in the game itself. Therefore the cause of the issue is unknown. No other games I know suffer of similar problem to give any indication for possible solutions either. The glitch is similar to vsync tearing but instead of tearing, you have this horizontal band spanning the whole screen with no texturing for most objects, giving you a very distracting sort of x-ray vision.***Latest version: 1.2.944 (as of 2000-07-27?)***Evolva is a tactical shoot-em up which immerses the plater in a visually stunning 3D world and offers a rich and deep gameplaying experience.

Driven by Computer Artworks' A-Life technology, the player takes control of a team of customisable creatures called Genohunters. The Genohunter adapts itself by killing and then absorbing its enemies DNA, thereby allowing itself to mutate to incorporate any useful abilities it may have acquired.

Evolva mixes the excitement of a fast paced shoot-em-up with the tactical elements of a strategy game.

* Features fully interactive environments covering 12 lands across 3 continents and allows players to melt ice, torch plants, blow up rocks etc.
* Weapons include fire breath, giant claws, electricity weapons, gene disruptors, necrocytes, flammable vomit.
* Go head to head in multiplayer matches (LAN & Internet) to see who has evolved the most effective set of warriors.
* Players can exchange Genohuners over the Internet.

Officially, not a single US asset is in North Korea.

Lurking I: Immortui oklabsoft2020A retro style RPG in look and feel. No hand-holding, no hint system, no metaprotection, and no step-by-step instructions. Talk to NPCs most information required. Permadeath is an option. Also, the rate at which the player can expect encounters has three levels to choose from. There is bare minimal (and skippable) story provided before the party is tossed into the wide open world. The player must speak to people to advance the plot and find the clues to discover the path to victory over evil. The evil that needs defeating must also be discovered. Games of this type from the early 1980s often came with maps, an instruction book, and one way or another had charts, monster lists, spell lists as such. Lurking provides equivalent information, but it is all provided by NPCs in-game and must be sought out by the player. Lurking began as an Apple ][ game in 1986. It was inspired by Ultima III. It later became a Windows game written in Visual Basic. The version of this game entry comes from a C language rewrite. It has some helpful modern features, such as a BACK option to see previous dialog in conversations and auto mapping, but nothing to make the game as easy as most modern CRPGs. Character creation is a matter of distributing 20 points to attributes and skills with no other restriction except 20 points. Some stats are derived from these with a random addition of up to 10% (it seems). The player can create a roster of 12 characters and play with [spoiler=one to five characters;hide DROP and ADD] one to five characters at any time by finding a particular NPC and asking said NPC to DROP or ADD them.[/spoiler]. Skills and attributes each have their own upgrade system [spoiler=that;hide upgrade hint] that a particular NPC will explain[/spoiler]. Experience points and levels will be needed. There is a README provided with the game that suggests the first NPC to talk to but also says to talk to everyone everywhere. Some NPCs seem to be present at first only for world-building but it is implied in the README that every NPC will (eventually) provide important information.

"Immortui" is Latin for Undead(Zombies). But don't worry, this not a Zombie game. "Lurking" is English.

[spoiler=Urssa/Marquis;Hide]Found in Mountains of Barr, north-west part of the same region you enter the copper mine.[/spoiler]
[spoiler=Dragon reliefs;Hide]These require dragon windpipe flute, obtained from much farther into the mountains from a graveyard. You can play about four tunes with the flute depending on the length of time the key is pressed (and supposedly hardness), match the tune with the description of the relief. The other tunes are needed later

Happy / yellow - short, chipper tune; short, light tap
Playful / green - mellow/sad tune; long, light tap
Sad / blue - mellow tune; short, hard tap
Angry / red - long-ish, fast paced tune; long, hard tap

You can practice the presses away from the reliefs to avoid the spawning of the dragons when you get the tune wrong. IMO the playful and sad tunes are the wrong way around.

Doors with changing relief needs all tunes played on matching emotion relief. They need to be played in order starting from the one after blank. Failure seems to reset the sequence.[/spoiler]
Aqueduct entrance is at the south-west corner of Airyglyph. In case you've forgotten.***[b]healing/energy stations[/b] - blue symbols on the ground which are free, and inns which cost little to use.
[b]grinding[/b] - although you can avoid most battles in the open, you'll have serious issues later on. Such as 24-25 level character being unable to defeat the sub-boss on the way to Marquis. Regular enemies on Barr mountains being too tough at similar level, level 30 being insufficient for the first regular enemies on the second disc (they're effectively harder than the Marquis boss battle you recently beat).

skeletons, giant chameleon-like creatures, giant porcupines, giant spiders, bats, some dog-like creatures, flying giant fish, giant horned tortoises, witches, treants, lone fairy, plant-like tentacle creatures, frog-like humanoids, lizardmen, mycoids, caninoids, inorganics (rock/soil and crystalline), and some others. generally speaking, it's a mishmash of seemingly random "monsters" working together against you.***[b]REACH FOR THE STARS[/b]
