Product Description:

Heretic is a first-person shoot-em-up in the same style as Doom. In fact, it is the prequel to Hexen, which was released commercially for the Macintosh.

This version of Heretic is based on the publicly released code by Raven, and is equivalent to version 1.3 for DOS.

What's new in this version:

Worked around some skanky mouse issues with InputSprocket. Details of theproblem and the workaround are in the source code file "mac input.c".� Added a workaround for the age-old color 0/255 problem. On the plus side,color ramps and fades no longer have black spots. On the minus side, thevideo rendering will be a little slower, especially in the high-detail mode.� Added a true "mouse look" ability. You can now easily look up and down viathe mouse or an analog joystick.

Heretic ReviewIt is what… - Version: 0.9.3, 6/23/2001 10:51AM PST

it claims to be: a port of the ancient Heretic game. It runs well and exhibits no bugs. Since this is a port of an old game, don't expect Deus Ex or Quake style gaming—you'll be sorely disappointed. The most interesting thing about this game is that it shows how far games have come since Heretic was originally released. Despite being a good port, I think its too dated. After 20 minutes of game play I was bored with it, and its not something I'd buy.
