![]() ![]() The first time we were in the making of a run, we encountered problems about halfway through the game as we couldn't open the gates. Besides from making sure that ammo and health is sufficient, the blue dots representing keycards are also utterly important. Gameplay is almost equally as simple: you basically just run and shoot everything in your way. There are a total of 10 levels in the game and the goal of each one is simple: activate the four self-destruct switches and head for the exit before the time runs out. Co-op mode is exactly the same as one-player mode, the only difference being that player one (J.Y) is purple and player two (DanE) is green respectively. Since this game has a great co-op mode, we decided to go for a 2-player run instead of the usual single player mode. For this run, we played the original version featured on demo disc 37. Apart from a couple of small changes in the music and sound effects both versions seem to be more or less identical. Psychon appears on at least two OPM UK demo discs (37 and 42, which has a special Net Yaroze HoF collection with 14 games on the same disc). Although there were a lot of fun and interesting homebrew games that saw an "official" release, Psychon is probably the best Net Yaroze game to be released in Europe. Net Yaroze programmers had access to forums where they could share their projects with others, and some games even made it to OPM's demo discs. Released in 1997, Net Yaroze made it possible for the common man to develop games for the PlayStation at home. Psychon is one of many home-brewed games made with the PlayStation development kit Net Yaroze. A deadly virus known as Psychon is spreading like a wildfire and threatening to make it's way to Earth and your job is to activate the self-destruct system and escape the space station before it's to late. Created by Ben James in a mere four weeks, Psychon is a top-down 2D shooter taking place on a space station. ![]()
