This is a remake of Berzerk on Atari from 1980.

Features

  • Random generated levels.
  • Lots of enemies on screen.

User guide

You have been sent into a building infested with robots, and must do your best to clear it out. Each room has a number of walls through the middle, which restricts your movement.

There will be a number of bad guys in the room - on early screens they may be immobile and not shoot at you, but after a few levels, they become capable of shooting in multiple directions. You can shoot at them in 8 directions, but can't shoot diagonally while moving.

There are gaps at the side of each room, through which you exit, before or after clearing the room.

You can be killed by being shot, by running into a robot or an exploding robot, getting electrocuted by the electrified walls of the maze itself, or by being touched by your nemesis, Evil Otto.

The function of Evil Otto, represented by a bouncing smiley face, is to quicken the pace of the game. Otto is unusual, with regard to games of the period, in that he's indestructible. Otto can go through walls with impunity and hunts you.

If robots remain in the maze Otto moves slowly, about half as fast as the humanoid, but he speeds up to match the humanoid's speed once all the robots are killed. Evil Otto moves at exactly the same speed as the player going left and right but he can move faster than you going up and down; thus, no matter how close Otto is, you can escape as long as they can avoid moving straight up or down.

You advances by escaping from the maze through an opening in the far wall.
