So few people know that this game is a part of Métal hurlant / Heavy Metal / Love, Death + Robots series, which is generally about short fantasy/sci-fi stories. But this one in particular is direct sequel to "Heavy Metal 2000", a full length adult animated film. Love both the series and this game.

I remember playing this on my dad's PC when I was like 12, and I was super scared of him finding out because of how skimpy Julie's outfit looks lol. I'm sad that the game never got a sequel, it's one of the biggest cliffhangers of my childhood (along with the ending to XIII).
I remember discovering this game on this website that had downloadable demos for Mac, back when I had the iMac G3, and absolutely falling in love with it. The environment is so rich it completely feels like its own world. The combat is really fluid once you get the hang of it, and is very easy to master. The characters actually had mouths that were reasonably synced to the dialog, which was really impressive back then (for N64/PS1 era games, this was damn near cutting edge). This game deserves so much more love and attention than it got.

Great game. Looks outdated for today standards but still a "good old game", currently missing from GOG. Played several times, and did completed once. 3rd person Quake3 engine based game.

This game is basically Drakan but without dragons and more futuristic. I love some of the maps have this futurism combined with nature, it's really awesome! Also the game has some awesome music and insane sound effects, it's literally a blast to play. Also, you can use a sword and a UZI at the same time, what's not to love? I would love to see this on GoG soon!

The game is far from being perfect. Unfair enemies, skills that you only need oen singe time for one single puzzle, questionable level design. But it has appeal ... and Julie Strain. inspired by the movie with the same name (in some countries renamed to Heavy Metal 2000), you play Julie, fighting aliens who for some reason invaded her home town. It's not as provocative as the Heavy Metal comics and not even as the movie, but it's bloody, there's gore. That has to count for something, right? I had this game in the big box, which is gone by now, but luckily at least tzhe CD is still around.
Great action game, with guns and blades, with platform and exploration elements. Based on Heavy Metal Magazine. Uses the Quake 3 engine. Has a female protagonist, inspired by the late adult film actress Julie Strain. Do you need any more reasons?
This game needs a rerelease! it was its time far ahead, great graphics, great gameplay! Sometimes a bit buggy, a remaster with fixed bugs would be best way to bringt the game back!

This was the only game I've played that had a level which looked as though it was inspired by Steve Ditko's art on the Doctor Strange strip in Strange Tales. I've read on the internet that the problem with selling this game is a rights issue. Hopefully it can be worked out and the game can return in an updated edition.

It is a wonderful Quake 3 Engine Title. The graphics are juicy with the beyond beautiful hand painted texture work seen in Quake 3 titles at that time, which is a pure joy to look at. The action packed, fast paced 3rd person jump and gun is a blast. Level, Character and Enemy Design was quirky and nothing you'd see elsewhere too often. Then there was the wonderful soundtrack (the actual in game music, not only the title song). I would love to have this as a nice GOG port playable with Controller. The game basically plays like a living breathing comic book, and a modern port would be just amazing.

Dark Earth
Dark EarthDark Earth is a post-apocalyptic action-adventure game for the PC. Dark Earth takes place several centuries in the future, when a meteor collision with Earth tossed up great clouds of dust that blocked out the sun. Earth's remaining survivors began to seek refuge beneath small openings in the clouds, the few places light could be found. Those that remained in the 'dark earth' were hunted by strange creatures, infected with the darkness. To shelter themselves from the dangerous 'dark earth', the people began to form cities beneath the light called 'Stallites'. At the time of the game, most of the citizens of the stallite have forgotten their history and now worship the light as a god. The stalites are run by 'Sun Priests', who maintain order and prevent the creatures of darkness from harming the city. The game follows the story of Arkhan, a "guardian of fire", protector of the stallite 'Sparta' and the Sun Priests. After an attack on the sun priests, Arkhan has a poison thrown into his face that begins to infect him with the dark sickness. He begins to mutate into a creature of the dark and has to find a cure before his transformation is complete. Along the way, he is treated as an enemy by most of his former friends while he struggles to uncover the conspiracy behind the attack.
