About
Interplay published Descent, a shooter and action title developed by Parallax Software that launched on March 12, 1996. This first-person sci-fi simulation offers single-player and co-op modes for both modem and network play. Players can choose between head-to-head combat or cooperative two-player experiences in an eight-player network environment. The game features true three-dimensional worlds with light source shading, texture mapping, and directional sound effects. Users navigate mine shafts and tunnels using six degrees of freedom to move up, down, and rotate freely. The setting spans from the Moon to Pluto after the Post-Terran Mining Company loses contact with its miners and robots. Material Defender players must find survivors and identify the source of a threat while avoiding robotic menaces. Combat involves deadly weapons against creatures utilizing advanced artificial intelligence that plot ambushes from all sides. The experience includes mechanical monsters, deadly traps, and hidden tunnels within twisting levels. Audio elements include explosive multi-directional sound effects paired with a pulsing musical score. The main story runs for approximately 14 hours, while the full content including extras extends to 19 hours. Completing all objectives requires around 28 hours of gameplay.Read moreShow less
