After looking at the permissions of all the files in the directory they're all read-only so I set everything to read/write to avoid any possilble complains with other files later on. I did actually come up against a couple of problems, which I'm not sure if these are unique to running DOSBOX on Linux.įirstly, DOSBOX was complaining in the background about being unable to write to 'SIDEICON.GPH'. More often than not, the minigame is completed by simply entering a portal at the end of the level.Enjoying this game so far, it's very well written and I've already been told off by the narrative as others mentioned below. In Bentley's Hackpack, not every Alter Ego hack ends with a battle. After defeating the CPU core, Bentley takes control of the system, and the hack is complete. However, after shooting a laser beam the shield falls briefly, allowing you to deal damage. The core periodically forms a shielding barrier around itself.

Though they spawn infinitely, these enemies follow a set path and are destroyed with a single shot. There are three types of enemies in Alter Ego, with the standard type being purple nano-bots.

Collecting and using one (by pressing ) destroys any enemies or barriers within a short distance of Bentley. Power-ups known as logic bombs appear occasionally throughout the minigame. A single shot of damage drops your level by one. At higher levels, the binary package fires rockets in addition to the standard turret. Collecting five yellow ion bits or one red ion bit increases your level by one. Throughout the minigame, you can collect ion bits to level up. Your weapon is the "binary package," fired with.
