Awesome - Amiga Game - Weapons and Game Over Sequence
A quick run through of all the weapons available in awesome, followed by the
death animations and game over sequence.
Weapons in order of appearance:
Cannons - Your main weapon that cannot be removed, it can be powered up or down
by swapping power between it and the shields.
Weapon Frame and Full Powered Cannon - Origionally it was intended that you
bought the weapon frame seperate to the weapons, they decided against this in
the end but you can see by pressing "2" while the cheats are enabled that they
left it in, it serves no purpose.
Spherical Bombs - One of only two weapons that can destroy the rings that
surround you at the beginning of two of the levels.
Radial Disruptor - This weapon works like a single use smartbomb (although you
can buy it multiple times and use it as many times as you bought it) It's fairly
expensive however and has no real advantage to taking a normal weapon.
Flamethrower - It was intended that the flamethrower be a good weapon for using
against organic enemies, however it appears to do nothing against any enemy at
all.
Pulse Laser - A smaller version of the Wide-Beam Cannon, faily effective against
everything and useful in most situations.
Peripheral Gun (with all 5 barrels) - You have to buy each directional shot
seperately, each shot is quite weak but if you can get one side right next to an
enemy it should be enough to kill them quite quicky.
Wide-Beam Plasma Cannon - My favorite weapon, good against most things and
reasonably cheap.
Mortar Bolts - The only other weapon that can destroy the rings that surround
you at the start of two levels. Destroys any enemy on contact however it usually
destroys anything that they would have dropped with it.
Energy Syphon - This weapon isn't actually named, however when used against
other ships it drains there energy and gives it to you. The weapon is obtained
from the space station at Volcurn.
Sonic Mining Laser - The weapon can only damage asteroids, however it has a
chance of making them leave crystals behind which can be collected and sold.
Pulse Shower - Available towards the end, its basically the Peripheral Gun but
with more firing points, very useful for the asteroid belts towards the end of
the game.
