The majority of this disk is taken up by the excellent game "COSMOCADE", by Brian Greenstone and Dave Triplet. This game is the next in the series of shareware games by these two authors. Previous titles from include Orbizone and Quadrinome. Cosmocade is really two games in one, "Naxos" and "Journey to Calibus".
Naxos is a very unusual game, something I have never seen before, and hard to describe. You have a horizontally scrolling screen, and rather amusing looking creatures appearing from everywhere, with the object being to "shoot-em-up".
Journey to Calibus: Is very similar to the arcade game "Xevious", that was popular a number of years ago. The game features some very smooth scrolling graphics, and excellent sound. The object is to shoot as many ships as possible, and collect bonus objects along the way.
Also on this disk is a small program "SHKalid". Shkalid displays colour changing patterns on the screen. Guarenteed to get rid of a headache, it is also good for showing off you GS to friends.

AUG GS Disk 97
This disk is a game by the French FTA team. It is a Grand Prix arcade game. The object is to control your car with the joystick to move around a race course. Once you have "qualified", you get a chance to race computer controlled cars driven by "Prost", "Senna", most of the other 1990 F1 drivers. Graphics and animation are excellent.
