Together Retro: Qwak

[fastbilly1]

You assume that Star Control II wont steal away my game time for the next few days...

the month is winding down, so I'm just curious if anyone else has a high score they want to divulge, or comments on the game, or anything?

I want to say that I approve of this choice for TR, as it seems not many even tried it - including me. I remember reading reviews of this game in the U.K. Amiga mags of the time.

I'm just not able to follow TR's schedule as I found it wasn't working for me to just take a break on games I was already playing to do the TR game in the designated period. I will want to play this game eventually, and I intend to remember to post my score here (even if no one may care by the time I get to play it).

Ive noticed that Ivo, you seem to follow TR about five months behind. I finally did break 200k, but do not remember the specifics. I am glad this game was brought up, I would have never looked at it without.

last day of the month. Did anyone else end up trying Qwak?

I played for maybe 15 minutes a couple weeks ago. I wasn't very good at it. I meant to play again, but I never got around to it.

I think I sold a dozen people on this title yesterday. I fired up the game on my friends netbook at a con on a monitor while we were in a hallway and alot of people came by and wanted to know more about the game. I gave them a racketboy card and told them to google "Qwak" to get it and if they couldnt find it to come here.

Someone did send me the GBA rom , but I never got around to trying it. I didn't care for it on the PC - just not my thing. I imagine it is more fun on a portable system, but it's currently in the backlog.

Also, iPhone version is in the works, and should see the light of day, very soon. There's a movie of it in action on the front page here:
