Intellidiscs 1.1

Intellidiscs is a Remake of Tron: Deadly Discs for the classic Intellivision console. Its also one of the few, if not the first, Tron freeware games that has nothing to do with light-cycles.

Basically, you run around in an arena fighting off bad guys with your disc. There are four different varieties of bad guy, and one of them has three different varieties of disc. More difficult enemies appear as your score increases, with the most difficult showing up if you can reach 1,000,000 points.

Bad guys enter through doors on the sides of the arena. You can jam these doors open by either hitting them with your disc, or by running into them. If you jam open doors that are opposite each other, you can run in one side and come out the other. This is very important to your survival.

If you jam enough doors, eventually a recognizer will be dispatched to fix them. If you can hit the recognizer when its eye is open, it will stop fixing the doors and leave the arena. Plus, you get lots of points for this.

You can take three hits before you die, and every hit makes you slower! You will eventually recover from damage, regaining your speed as well. Touching the recognizer kills you instantly, so dont do it.

Default controls are the familiar WASD to move, and the outer keys of numpad (1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 7, 8, 9, non-Mac users turn Num Lock on!) throw your disc in any of eight directions. If you press one of the throw keys while your disc is in flight, it will return to you. Discs are harmless when returning. If you move away from your disc as it is flying back, it will never catch up to you, you must stop and catch it. All of the controls can be changed from the main menu.
