- Battle the likes of sozzled bearbearians and nuke-addled snotwolves to protect our glowing green world from the sweaty hands of the Uberlich! Krumit's Tale involves the same core deck building mechanics as Meteorfall: Journeys and the same cast of overly optimistic heroes, but expands the ‘swipe’ mechanic into a dynamic grid based system.
- Meteor Storm Escape - A retro futuristic racing game A Meteor Storm has hit your city. Escape the cataclysm on your futuristic Hoverbike. Weave across country and avoid the meteors as they smash down into the landscape around you.
Meteor Storm is a simple MSX BASIC game about flying though an asteroid field at increasingly high speeds. Are you an ace pilot? Meteor Storm was written to take advantage of the rarely used MSX Paddle Controller standard, which means that it can theoretically be played as intended using all of the following devices:
- DigiArkaPad DIY Paddle Controller (in Standard mode, this is the device the game was tested on)
- Atari 2600 paddle with DIY adapter
- Yamaha MMP-01 touch pad and compatible devices
- IBM-PC DA15 joystick with DIY adapter
- Nintendo 64 controller with DIY adapter
Please note that the Taito Arkanoid Vaus MSX Paddle uses an entirely different protocol and is therefore incompatible. Additionally, MSX Turbo-R computers cannot use any of the above devices without first installing TRnewdrv.

Meteor Game Online
Your high score is recorded in HISCORE.TXT and will automatically be updated by the game whenever you break your previous record. Your game has been initialized to my high score... let's see if you can beat it!
Please use an MSX-MUSIC compatible device for highest-quality audio.
Meteor Storm was created by _NetNomad and Maddie. At the beginning of the project, I was explaining to Maddie the basics of how the MSX and my code worked. By the end of the project, she was the one explaining to me how the code did (and more importantly didn't) work!

Install instructions
Meteor Storm can be played on any MSX computer or on any modern computer with an MSX emulator. On a real MSX, simply write the contents of METEORS.ZIP to your floppy disk or floppy emulator or place the folder on your disk drive and enter BASIC, navigating to the METEORS subdirectory needbe. In emulators simply mount the zip file as a disk or (as I found I had to do in WebMSX) import all files in folder to disk. If AUTOEXEC.BAS does not run automatically (your screen does not instantly turn black), type LOAD'AUTOEXEC.BAS' and hit enter, and then run and hit enter.
Simply type LOAD'filename.BAS':RUN in BASIC after running AUTOEXEC.BAS to play. Replace filename with METEORS to play with a paddle, METEORKB to play with a keyboard, METEORMS to play with a mouse, or METEORJP to play with a joypad. Please note that the mouse is not supported on the MSX1 and the paddle is not supported on the Turbo-R without a modified BIOS.
Meteor Storm is configured for MSX-MUSIC by default. In order to play with only PSG audio, rename METEORS.MGS to something else and then rename PSG.MGS to METEORS.MGS.
See here for video on how to quickly set up the game with mouse support on webMSX.
These instructions may be unclear or confusing to those who are not familiar with the MSX environment. Please do not be shy asking for clarification or help, we want you to be able to enjoy this game! Thank you for playing!
