About

Futuria is William Demas's adventure, ported to the Apple IIGS in October 2026 by Antoine Vignau and Olivier Zardini of Brutal Deluxe. A time warp leaves you in the city of Futuria in 2190, with robots trying to kill you, and you have to get back to your ship. The original write-up describes 60 locations and 100 objects. Craig Sadler drew the black and white graphics.

Demas first released it on the TRS-80 in 1981 as Forbidden Planet Part II, also called Forbidden City, with speech and no pictures. He ported it to the Macintosh 128K in 1984 and 1985, dropped the speech, and Unicorn Software published it as Futuria. The other half, Forbidden Planet Part I, is the IIgs port Utopia, listed separately. Brutal Deluxe rewrote the game in 65816 from a disassembly of the Macintosh code. The music is A. Amendola's Giacea nel proprio sangue, from mutopiaproject.org under a Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 3.0 license, converted with Dave Tribby's MIDI Synth tools.

Commands are verb and noun. SAVE GAME and LOAD GAME keep a session, QUIT leaves, and CHEAT stops you from dying. SHOOT ROBOT kills a robot that is chasing you. The disk is an 800K ProDOS image. Launch FUTURIA from the Finder. Get the disk from the Brutal Deluxe product page, which has the current version. Their English walkthrough is there too, and the source is on GitHub.
