Battle of Aldebaran is a first person space combat game written for the
Amiga 1200. Everything is drawn by the machine itself: no RTG, no
accelerator, 256 colours out of AGA on a plain 68020. A Fast RAM
expansion is needed, but it does not have to be a CPU card.

You fly for the Nordics against the Anunnaki. The demo runs six waves,
from single fighters through escorted gunships to the enemy flagship,
across three planets, with animated cutscenes between them.

Features
  - Solid shaded ships rendered from every angle, with mounted cannons
    that only glow while they fire
  - Full screen animated cutscenes played from disk
  - Music and sound effects driven straight through Paula
  - Mouse or joystick, with every key rebindable from the menu
  - Local highscore table

Requirements
  Amiga 1200 with AGA, 2 MB Chip and 4 MB Fast RAM, and a hard disk.
  With less Fast RAM the game still runs, but drops the intro film and
  the launch sequence rather than failing.

Installing
  Unpack anywhere on your hard disk, for example

    lha x BattleOfAldebaran.lha Work:

  then double click the game icon. The data is found through PROGDIR:,
  so it does not matter where you start it from.

This is a demo. Feedback is welcome and is what decides whether the
full version gets built.
