Hornado 26Mb
Hornado is a classic free sidescrolling spaceshooter similar to the C64 and Amiga game Katakis; and to XOut and R-Type. It is a German made game.
There are 8 different heart-thumping levels with a lot of enemies and huge bosses. The game has fantastic graphics and sounds and a different music track for each level. The keyboard controls can be custom set and there is an "Easy play mode" to practice - 15 ships, no downgrading of weapons;- by typing “i need help” at the intro. There is also an option to continue from the previous level reached. There’s a cheat system should you feel like boosting your weaponry and firepower the easy way!
You can upgrade weapons, and fire away at multiple enemies and use your skills to take on huge end-of-level bosses. There are a large number of different types of enemies to confront, and plenty of scenery items to avoid hitting!
It’s the sort of game that you can play for hours at a time and brings months of fun playing it!
Hornado is exceptional quality and with tremendous graphics for a freeware game . The game also has great sound and music.
I have played Nebula Fighter which is very similar, but isn’t freeware. There isn’t much to compare between the two for graphics, music, sound and playability, which says a lot about how excellent and very good Hornado actually is!
If you wish there is also a minimal version (11.6Mb) available without music or video, though if you can spare the 52Mb install space it is well worth having the full version!
The cheats can be found partway down the home page.
