Planet Rennie: Cloud Nine - Otto Matic's next destination is Planet Rennie which is floating carnival filled with clowns, bumper cars, and other carnival-style hazards.Planet Knarr: Yoth City Ruins - In this level, Otto Matic explores the unstable planet of Knarr filled with toxic waste and robots.Planet Snoth: Slime Boss - After being sucked into the depths of Snoth, Otto Matic encounters the Slime Machine.Planet Snoth: Area J3110 - In this level, Otto Matic explores the slimy planet of Snoth filled with slime enemies and aliens.Planet Earth: The Bentley Farm - In this level, Otto Matic must navigate a farm infested with aliens, mutant fruit, and an evil tractor while saving humans from abduction.Once The Giant Brain has been defeated and peace has been restored to the galaxy, you will return to Earth with your human cargo where they will be freed. To escape the planet you must also collect rocket fuel. While on each planet you must save as many humans as you can, but be careful because the Brain Aliens will try to abduct the humans before you can save them. Your rocket ship will take you to each of the planets, starting with Earth. Your mission will take you to strange and fantastic alien worlds which are often treacherous and will require Otto to perform amazing feats. You must rescue as many humans as you can while defeating the Brain Aliens and all of their evil minions. You are Otto Matic, the robot who is given the job of saving Earth from the clutches of The Giant Brain from Planet X. Luckily for the human race there exist the Otto Matics, robots who police the galaxy in the name of all that is good and decent. These saucers are under the control of the evil Brain Aliens who are abducting helpless human beings and taking them away to strange alien worlds to become slaves of The Giant Brain. All that being said, I have deep respect for the developer keeping his games playable on these newer platforms so that they can live on in a playable state.The year is 1957 and a fleet of flying saucers from Planet X have come to Earth. I could go on, but really, if the camera were fixed, this game would hold up far better against today’s 3D games. The other issues are smaller, like the way that there are many invisible barriers that your gun can’t shoot through (like by item boxes), but enemies can shoot through those same barriers and hit you, making for some frustrating gameplay. The right joystick does nothing, but how I wish it did! At one point, I was fighting this giant machine boss thing, and I had to just shoot at the general direction of where it might be because the camera was turned away from it and there was no way to fix that. The biggest one is by far the complete lack of any camera control. However, playing this again has made me realize that there were some glaring omissions in the gameplay. It seems like this game is rendered at native resolution or something very sharp on my 2020 iPad Pro, and it also appears that the game targets 60 fps and often hits that, but it’s hard to tell. So I was floored when I saw that this game was in the iOS store and had controller support. I loved playing this game as a little kid and I’ve even looked into Power Mac emulation in an effort to somehow play it again. Your rocket ship will take you to each of the alien planets, and on each planet you must save as many humans as you can, but be careful because the Brain Aliens will try to abduct the humans before you can save them. You are Otto Matic, the robot given the job of saving Earth from the Brain Aliens. The year is 1957 and a fleet of flying saucers from Planet X have come to Earth.
