Deadly Tide PC CD underwater ocean bases deep sea ship alien rail shooter game! Type: Game Platform: Windows Publisher: Microsoft Released: 1996 Media: CD DEADLY TIDE It's been five years since the aliens broke through Earth's defenses and set up their ocean bases. Now you are the last remaining fighter left to save Earth from this alien invasion. Deadly Tide thrusts you in the role of one of Earth's elite hydrofighter pilots. As the aliens are aquatic beings, all of the action takes place in the briny depths of the world seas. You must blast your way through wave after wave of baddies if humankind is to see the dawning of another day.Deadly Tide is a rail shooter, which means you follow a predetermined path through hordes of alien ships, shooting everything in sight. Since you cannot control where your Hydra sub travels, you basically assume the position of a gunner, with the joystick controlling the cross-hairs. Although this lack of control limits gameplay, it allows developers to fill the screen with the best graphics and eye candy available. Because you are on a set path, the pre-rendered graphics look loads better than games where you choose your own route. The underwater realm of Deadly Tide is one of the most detailed and best looking of any video game I've seen. For Windows (32-bit Systems) [*Please review compatibility/platform sections in 'What You Get']
