PROJECT FIRESTART – Commodore 64 (1989) | Pioneering Survival Horror Adventure

Project Firestart, developed by Dynamix and published by Electronic Arts in 1989, is a groundbreaking survival horror game for the Commodore 64. Set aboard the research station Prometheus orbiting Saturn's moon Titan in 2061, players assume the role of government agent Jon Hawking, dispatched to investigate the station's sudden loss of communication.

The gameplay unfolds as a side-scrolling adventure with pseudo-3D elements, where players navigate the station's various decks, uncovering logs and computer terminals that reveal the tragic tale of genetic experimentation gone awry. The station's corridors are now infested with hostile, mutated creatures, and players must manage limited resources, make critical decisions, and race against time to set the station's self-destruct sequence before escaping.

One of the game's most innovative features is its cinematic presentation, with scripted events and atmospheric music that heighten the tension and immerse players in its narrative. The game's multiple endings, influenced by player choices, add replayability and depth.

While Project Firestart faced criticism for its frequent disk swapping and occasionally slow scrolling, it remains a seminal title in the survival horror genre. Its influence is evident in later classics like Resident Evil and System Shock. Today, it stands as a cult favorite among retro gaming enthusiasts, celebrated for its innovative gameplay and storytelling.
