  Llamatron - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Llamatron is a computer game written by Jeff Minter of Llamasoft for the Amiga, Atari ST and PC (DOS).
It is a clone of the 1980s arcade game Robotron: 2084 in Jeff Minter's distinctive style.
A variant version, called Rude Llamatron, was created only for the Atari ST and includes sampled profanity, usually played when the player's llama is killed.

Llamatron is a clone of Robotron 2084, a very difficult game to reproduce on the PC as the original featured two joysticks: one joystick to move around and another to control your aim.
But Llamatron is a pretty decent clone of the original, and stays faithful to Robotron's famous kill-hundreds-of-enemies-at-once gameplay.
Llamatron makes for a great diversion: it's nearly as fast-paced as Robotron, and the addition of llamas and other gentle four-legged creatures makes a great game even better.

Jeff Minter has said that his next game after Unity will be Llamatron 2, and it'll probably be done Gridrunner++ shareware PC style.
For everyone wanting to see Llamatron the first, go get Steem here, an Atari ST emulator, and the TOS file while you're at it.
Llamatron is an unbalanced gimmicky version of the same game, stripped of its frenetic energy and strategy.

Llamatron is obviously a remake of the classic Williams game, Robotron 2084.
However, in Llamatron, you play the role of a butt-kicking Llama who's goal is to rescue the sheep, camels, and other beasties from annihilation.
Llamatron throws all that out of the window and achieves the best method of firing-moving I have yet to see.

 Entrance! -- Starbase Rugby: Docking Bay
Over at the far side a distressingly slow looking encounter was taking place at a snail's pace between a group of assorted kidnappers, a dozy looking group of security, and the Autobot answer to Clint Eastwood.
Llamatron looked around in wide-eyed wonder at the huge docking bay until his eyes fell upon a universal sign for what he needed most.
Though this was fuzzy thinking even for a freshly decanted protoform, Llamatron's CPU mulled over the idea and returned an affirmative 'pinging' noise.

Llamatron is a Robotron-like game in which you play a llama that has to rescue beasties, while beating the weirdest range of enemies.
Llamatron's concept is easy: Save the beasties while simply blasting everything else.

 The Llamatron "read me" file
"Llamatron" was a Robotron-esque action game released for the Atari ST, and later the Amiga, in 1991 as Llamasoft's first foray into shareware.
Llamatron takes the Robotron idea and distorts it in a Yakly fashion, adding loads of new stuff and plenty of furry beasties in the Llamasoft style.
We could have flogged it as a pretty good budget game via conventional means, but Yak decided to try it as shareware 'coz he liked the idea so much.

There's a fair amount of variety in there too, with lots of enemy types, some addons and extras that Robotron never had - I'll leave it to you to discover them all.
I know this type of game is a complete anachronism in the 90's, and I know this sounds like a bit of the old rose-tinted bollocks, but Llamatron I consider to be a true gamer's game.
Unlike R-Type and Nemesis and other classic shooters, you don't need to memorise levels or waves in Llamatron to be good at it.

 Review of the game Llamatron: 2112
I've been told that it's a "genuine" shoot'em'up, arguably the most difficult shmup known to man. Beeing the shmup-affictionado that I am, I looked for the game and finally found it in some obscure abandonware site a couple of months ago and decided to give it a go.
In essense, Llamatron doesn't have anything geniuely good OR geniunely bad.
It is an astoundly mediocre game, with decent graphics and sound (1992 mind you), pretty easy controls etc. The only really cool thing about this game is, well, llamas :-)
