VISIBLE WORLDS SHAREWARE
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


 Visible worlds is the product of 4 long months of research and development.  This tool
will allow your Dark Basic / Dark Basic Pro / Bliz 3D  or even your own custom engine

we pre-calculates the what is in your field of view at all times. The benefit is huge,
as by pre-calculating you save your program from rendering objects / terrain sections
that are obstructed from view.  This will make your game/demo run much faster ! and
 ultimately allowing for a high level of detail. 

 Feature List:
 =============

  * Custom Map format.  

  * Supports various types of solid/transparent rotated space.

  * Supports Height Map Terrains.

  * Automatic Level of Details support

  * Dynamic object re-allocation (save memory, re-use your geometry!)

  * Way Point creation

     closes worlds, and even intersecting gemometry

  * Very Fast Map Compiling !!

 THESIUS XII                                                         (FREE AMIGA  GAME)
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


Info:

Thesius XII is an extremely challenging, high action space fantasy shoot'em up. Thesius
 is similar in design to IREM's classic 'R-TYPE' tm, Although we consider it more a
 blend between that and my personal favourite, 'Silk Worm' tm.

The full release version features four well balance levels, each level is set within
 it's own unique scenario, containing various sounds tracks and two major guardians per
 level.  Throughout your battle, you'll encounter over 120 unique and highly aggressive
 alien objects, all of which, have one small idea on their very small minds, they must
 Destroy You.... (which is something they are quite good at.. ;)

Thesius XII v95 (Aminet demo) was first reviewed in the August issue of 'Amiga Format'
 in their PD section. In the following issue it again was featured (along side a number
 of other great products and talented developers) in a special article focusing upon
 the new torchbearers upon the Amiga.
