Greetings:
This afternoon I re-discovered an old GS game I bought years
ago: Xenocide from Pangea/Micro Revelations.
I was wondering if anyone knew any easter eggs in it.
More importantly, any cheats? (eg, restore sheilds,
recharge fuel/air/weapons, get powerups)
Finally, has anyone reverse-engineered it? I spent several
hours pouring over the "caves" and "mazes" data files, but
couldn't make any sense of them. I'm beginning to suspect
they're compressed or encrypted.
I won the game back when I first got it, but I'm still
interested in writing a program to display the various
maps. Of course, a map editor would be fun, too...
Any information or pointers would be welcome.
