Topic: Airburst


  
  Macgamefiles.com: Airburst
With the TV rights to all the sports on Earth accidentally sold to a Martian megacorporation, people were a bit lost for what to watch on a Saturday afternoon.
Airburst is a bonkers mad arcade game for 1- 4 players, with 12 different game modes, 60 million possible different levels and tons of power ups.
Airburst Network is a public beta and is a free update to all registered Airburst players.

Airburst is heartening, too, for OS X users who want to play something a little different than boxed commercial games.
Airburst just has a great concept which was presented well.
Airburst benefits from having a relatively simple idea so there is rather little to mess up.

 ATPM 7.09 - Review: Airburst 1.0.1
Although Airburst takes some ideas from other games, the combination is so unique and amazingly well done that one cannot help but become addicted to the game.
Airburst was written by two brothers from the UK whose software company, “Strange Flavour,” had its debut with the side-scrolling action game BushFire not long ago.
When I first tried Airburst, I was struck by the level of craftsmanship and attention to detail that found its way into the game, something one rarely finds these days in shareware games, except from the big shareware developers like Ambrosia and Freeverse.

 Airburst Extreme
Airburst Extreme may not be extreme in the way those Mountain Dew commercial kids consider the term, but it certainly is extreme in the way of options and fun.
In Airburst Extreme, you've also got a multiplayer component, which is almost a necessity with a game such as this.
Airburst Extreme is manic fun; an adrenaline rush that is simultaneously maddening and joyous.

 MBIL -a new airburst Infantry weapon
In the previous article I pointed out that an airburst round for the 40x53mm AGLs already exists, so creating a 40x46mm version for weapons such as the M203 and Revolver Grenade launchers should be possible.
The Sighting and Fire control system needed for the launcher would be the same as has already been developed for the OICW with just a few changes to the software to allow for the different projectile.
It was somewhat similar in concept to what you and others have proposed for increasing offensive combat power of the infantry squad, in that launch tube sat atop the shooter's shoulder, with the rocket exhaust vented behind him.

 More Info
AirBurst® Technology is a patented process whereby the Bolt Air Gun is used to stimulate selected zones in a water well.
The intensity of the AirBurst® process can be regulated by changing the gas pressure and gun size, or by chancing the number of AirBursts® and AirBurst® spacing as needed to tailor the cleaning energy to meet the construction, condition, and depth of the well.
However, when AirBurst® is used in conjunction with traditional well treatment chemicals, the agitation action of the AirBurst® process results in more uniform dispersal of the chemistry.

To make a long story short, thanks to what seemed to be a nice MUG President, I have become addicted to this crazy game called Airburst.
Ok, so maybe it's not his fault, and he is a nice MUG President after all.
Airburst is simple in appearance and in game-play, but that is what makes me want to play it sooo much.

 Airburst: the Interview   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-17)
Strange Flavour made headlines back in March 2001 with its release of Bushfire, a 2D sidescroller where gamers pilot a helicopter that's fighting to put out forest fires.
While the registrations were lower than expected, they've done ok (although Airburst overtook them in its first week).
In theory the balance is such that an experienced player will have the edge overall, but a newbie will still *have a chance* and will enjoy the game more.

Airburst Extreme and WingNuts 2: Raina’s Revenge take advantage of cutting-edge technology while hearkening back to fond memories of addictive gameplay.
Not only will you discover echoes of games long gone in both of Freeverse Software’s titles, but you may also find a burning monkey or two hidden somewhere in them, a reference to the characters who populated such early classics as Burning Monkey Solitaire.
Airburst Extreme and WingNuts 2, like every game Freeverse releases, require nothing more from you than the desire to simply have a good time.

 Airburst Extreme to ship August 24th
Airburst Extreme, the "spectacular multi-player game of balloon bursting mayhem at 30,000 feet," is the highly anticipated sequel to the award-winning Airburst (2001 MacWorld Game Hall of Fame).
The full Airburst Extreme game has 32 different game types, introduced by an interactive Story game in which you meet the different characters in the Airburst universe and fly around the solar system playing Airburst games, using your new Extreme powers and foiling the plans of the somewhat dodgy Mars Media Mega Corporation.
Airburst Extreme features spectacular rendered OpenGL graphics, literally billions of levels and a soundtrack from Abdoujaparov, Freekstar and Jaffa Mountain.

 How Dangerous are Earth-Crossing Objects?
The extent of the damage even a small impactor can cause is exemplified by the asteroid or comet fragment which exploded in the air over Tunguska in Siberia in June of 1908 with a force equivalent to between ten and twenty megatons of TNT.
The area was sparsely inhabited so only two people are reported to have been killed: Vasiliy son of Okhchen died from wounds sustained after being hurled against a tree by the blast, and the aged hunter Lyuburman of Shanyagir died from shock.
The coincidence in time leads some scientists to speculate that the Kiev object may be a fragment of the Tunguska impactor, or at least, a fragment of the same parent object as the Tunguska impactor.

The single player story mode is quite boring, and corny to a point where it makes you wonder what they were doing when they started the story.
Airburst Extreme also includes a built in editor to allow you to customize your balloon layout, and even customize the skins for it.
Most of it is a cross between hard rock and electronica, but one of the songs is a pop style that follows the story of Airburst Extreme and talks about Strange Flavour if you listen to the words.

 IMG Review: Airburst Extreme   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-17)
AirBurst Extreme is, as the title suggests, mainly a remake of AirBurst, albeit one with a large amount of content added.
Rather than rehash the basic game types and powerups, which are by and large the same as the original Airburst, I would rather discuss how AirBurst Extreme has changed from the original AirBurst (for info on the basic game types, etc. please see IMG's review of Airburst or the AirBurst Extreme website).
A line of bubbles flows across the screen when the background changes, the cursor is followed by a fun little rotating light, and buttons and layout make it very easy to find what you need and look extremely good in the process.

 Artilery Airburst effects on tanks - Battlefront.com Discussion Area
Fragments from a 105mm airburst may have no chance of penetrating a Panther but I wouldnt mind betting the shock wave from the explosion couldnt buckle or even break metal..
If airburst arty barely damaged a M113 at about 15 meters I doubt it would do much against a main line battle tank.
Paradoxically, given a low, close airburst it seems that your tank's mobility is at greater risk than it would be if the shell simply landed on the ground nearby.

Just a few pumps from any stand-up bike pump builds up pressure in the launcher until the special red and white “booster disks" rupture, releasing the air pressure in a microsecond and accelerating the rocket skyward.

Airburst, which will be released for Classic and Mac OS X in approximately three weeks, features a combat arena where players use a paddle to try to protect their bubble from being popped by spiked balls that bounce around the arena.
For the main game, the player is protected by a series of balloons that surround the main bubble that the cartoon characters sit atop.
While the main deathmatch game type and all of the game's levels will be playable without purchase, the company is asking for players to pay the $3 registration fee in order to unlock Airburst's other nine game types, including Capture the Frog, Thief, and Duel.
