Freedroid Classic is a free arcade game for Linux , Windows , Sharp Zaurus, and macOS . It is a reprogramming ( clone ) of the computer games Paradroid and Paradroid 90 , the first release dates from 2002. The game is under the GNU General Public License (GPL).
Gameplay
The aim of the game is to free a fleet of spaceships from malfunctioning, aggressive robots by destroying them or taking control. The game principle is the same as with the prototypes, but expanded setting options are introduced:
- The input devices mouse , keyboard and joystick can be used and individually set up for control.
- Screen resolution, full screen display and volume are adjustable.
- Information can be displayed or hidden individually, for example the energy level of your own robot or text messages that other robots give out when you approach them.
- The appearance can be changed with three "themes":
- Classic looks like the original Paradroid for the Commodore 64 .
- Para90 looks like Paradroid 90 for the Commodore Amiga .
- Lanzz :
Development history
The game originally appeared under the title Freedroid and is called that in the game itself. The addition “Classic” was subsequently introduced to distinguish it from a follow-up project, the computer role-playing game Freedroid RPG .
