About a year later, I picked up Cybermorph's much improved sequel Battlemorph with my Jaguar CD.
In '94, it was one of the more interesting and advanced games that I had ever played. It is definitely an early attempt at 3-D but as BTB says, they had to start somewhere. We loved the morphing ship, full 3-D exploration and thought Skylar was great. My friends and I were thrilled with Cybermorph. This was a very special title that came only to the Jaguar and what a showpiece it was.Ĭan you imagine if all their titles were like this?Ĭybermorph, along with Raiden and Wolf 3D, was one of my first Jaguar games. Its been a while since I played this one, I was pretty shocked at how good it looked. Would of loved to have seen how they further improved on this engine with Legions Of The Undead, which they promised would be significantly upgraded for the game Supposed to be around 128 meg of uncompressed visual data. Sensible use of Jaguar hardware-Rebellion seemed well aware early on that the hardware was simply not powerful enough to be throwing around texture-mapped 3D polygons at anything like a playable frame rate, plus using the Blitter to 'draw' the panels, letting the GPU handle the calculations.game ran in over 32,000 colours compared to Doom running in 256. It's little wonder Jaguar AVP still visually holds up well today.Ī 24 bit colour intro sequence, character models digitized from models, rather than drawn by hand (ok, blocky, but no worse than Probes motion-captured sprites for PS1/Saturn Alien Trilogy), textures on walls formed by developers creating 'panels' which were then digitized and turned into bitmapped graphics for the game.
