Spaceship Warlock - Intro

Spaceship Warlock is a 1990/1991 interactive movie by Reactor Inc. One of the first games to take advantage of its exclusive release on CD-ROM, the game throws players into a battle led by space pirate Captain Hammer to reclaim the Earth - now known as Terra - from dreaded alien Kroll. The remarkable interactive world (for its time) presents opportunities to make allies, fight enemies, talk to others and learn about their lives, and explore the vast confines several planets, ships, and the Warlock, the pirate mothership. Combat plays a large role, letting you fight through most situations with fists and guns.

I originally uploaded a few videos from this game on an old account a few years ago. This compiles a few of them, showcasing the game's opening and title screen.

Bizarre - I played this for like 1 hour back around 1991 and yet I instantly recognize the intro animation and music.

I remembered it a bit more awesome than it appears to me today, though. :)

[Obscuritory]

Nostaliga'll do that... I guess we just mentally filled in all the quality gaps back then.

[kpjlflsknflksnflknsa]

the games they make today dont have the same impact on me that these do, i guess its because im older but i played this as a kid and the entire world was completely emersive

[Obscuritory]

So many details they added get ignored nowadays. Did you know it's possible to lose the game by spending all your credits in a bar early on? It's the little things like that.

Wow, Nostalgia really hit me hard here. I remember the theme song and thought it ws one of the most awesome if but corny.

[echo036]

wow, thanks for posting this, i remember playing this back in high school (which was 12 years ago) i still remember this intro.

The Mac version of the game had a unique Reactor Inc logo with the circle and it's four outer barriers spinning and making some very cool sound effects in style with the game.

spaaaaaceshiiippp.... WARLOCK!!!

[daaaavidz]

Damn I played this game a lot, I remember to get really angry with those damn Krolls jumping around and dodging your bullets LOL.

The graphics looked so nice that time. Now I can't believe how crappy they are lol.

I think I had 10 years when I played the game and my english was terrible (it still is) but I managed to finish the game, just the last part when you give a speech that I asked my brother to help me typing.

[bsznm]

fuck i cant stop listening to it, i need a loop of just the title theme that i can listen to for hours

[bsznm]

yessssss the singing

[ig521987]

This was one of the first games I've ever played on a PC. So many memories. Superb game.

@KralTube2

Absolutely! I couldn't have been over 12, but the first level got imprinted on my mind. Video games like this aren't made anymore.

[jigglypiggly]

When/if you get around to doing a playthrough of SW you should do all the death/failure scenes as well.

[kpjlflsknflksnflknsa]

haha, i didnt.

But i do remember the bar, particularly the alien that dances far too provocatively for an eight year old ;)
