> Descent II Destination Quartzon by Parallax Software & Interplay
Descent II is a 1996 first-person shooter video game developed by Parallax Software and published by Interplay Productions. It is the second game in the Descent video game series and a sequel to the original Descent. Unlike standard first-person shooters, the player must control a flying ship that has a six degrees of freedom movement scheme, allowing the player to move in any 3D direction.
What is Destination Quartzon?
Destination Quartzon is the OEM version of Descent 2. It was named after the name of the last world of the packaged levels: Quartzon has the first 8 levels incl. the 2 secret levels of Descent 2 world, hence it features the worlds Zeta Aquilae and Quartzon.
Destination Quartzon 3D is the version bundled with 3D accelerator cards like Verite and Voodoo. It can only be played on that chipset, since no software renderer is included in that version. The quality in the 3Dfx Voodoo version however is worse than Parallax' D2Voodoo Rel.2 version for the full version, especially when you look at 2D objects (like hostages, powerups, animations), since they are not filtered.
What are the differences to the full version?
There are some differences to the full version:
Only 8 (+2 secret) levels, no multiplayer ones.
After the 8th level you get a debriefing that offers you to buy the full version for a special price.
No support for add-on missions. (Unlike Descent 1: Destination Saturn).
A minor difference: in the intro movie you see the logo "Descent 2" at the end like in the trailer, instead of "Descent II" like in the full version.
