Tube is a little known game from Bullfrog which was originally intended to be a test for a new Bullfrog employee. A unique concept in itself, Tube utilizes an old demo trick to simulate an endless forward-moving tunnel, along with some neat vector effects to simulate a long race track of sorts. In a nutshell you have to pick up speed in order to beat the track before your time runs out; you also have to destroy various obstacles in your way and collect weapon upgrades. Two players can play in split-screen mode. This game was never made into a title by Bullfrog and was released as a freeware game on cover CDs of various magazines. Each mag got its own unique variation: the logo of the respective publication appears as a wall texture in the game. Publications featuring the game included: PC Games (UK) issue 7, Feb 1995 and PC Player (Germany), April 1995. |
