I'm after a quality scan (JPEG or GIF) of the box/manual cover art for the
game Xenomorph by Pandora/Interceptor Group.

Also looking for a MOD file of title track and any other in-game sounds in a
format that can be played on a PC.

Anyone have the above, or know where I can find them?

I think I saw an ST version of the game a few weeks back. Might that work?
What do you want it for, anyway?

All the best,

I've never played the Atari ST version. Is it of equal standand to the
Amiga version? At least if I owned an Amiga version I could use a
emulator, maybe?

Once I've learnt HTML and created a web page I intend to devote a
section of it to Xenomorph, one of my all time favourite games. Intend
to have level maps (if I find a PC package for doing grid maps) and any
other related things I can think of. Would like the images, music, and
sounds for web presentation purposes, or at least for my own desktop
theme, especially the game cover art - male standing in front of
suspended egg - most impressive.

Unfortunately I don't own my Amiga, and it's games, any more so I'm
reliant on others. Just seems the game is more elusive than Lord Lucon!

I'm considering buying a cheap second hand Amiga, as they keep appearing
in the local paper, if it included a working original copy of Xenomorph,
and all the other classic titles I foolishly sold.

I wouldn't know about emulation, but it's likely given the time of the
game's release, (about quarter past four if memory serves) that it'll be
identical to the Amiga version apart from the audio.

So ....erm ...would you be up for doing a review of the game for the
Amiga Games Database? Hey, you'd be helping to keep the memory of the game
alive.


Regarding your quest for the game _and_ an Amiga, I think you'd be darned
lucky to find an Amiga for sale including Xenomorph. It was never very
common, and it's going back a long time. I bet you could find someone
selling it on the net though. You should have a look at Mikey's Yellow
Pages:

Or 'Second-hand Software' if you want to get there directly...

I'm planning on writing a review once I get hold of an original. Then
I'll be able to include details of what was planned for the game and what
got implement in the released version.

Subseqently found a MOD of the title track at a site listed within the
Game Music Web Ring.
