Payback in Progress
In the current status report #18 Apex Designs announced that the new game
'Payback' will be in trade in about two weeks. At the same time a playable
demo version will be made available for download.
In an interview with the Amiga-Future the programmer James Daniels described
Payback as follows:
"The player takes the part of young driver on the run and tries to become a
big gangsters' boss. The game is completely non-linear. To finish a level
the player simply has to collect a certain amount of points. How to achieve
this is up to him-/herself.
You can act on the local Kingpins' advice, uncover secret missions or join a
gunfight. There are a lot of hidden surprises to discover, so one must play the
game several times to find all of the extras. The game was inspired by Grand Theft Auto,
but I invested much effort into the game to make sure it will lick GTA in all respects."
