CU Amiga gave the Amiga CD32 version an 86%, saying that the graphics are not nearly as good as the FM Towns version, with enemy sprites that look "pasted on", but that the gameplay is considerably improved. Amiga Power similarly described Microcosm as a Space Harrier clone with extremely limited interactivity and little variations in the visuals, giving the game a 44%. In a 1995 second review, they lowered their score from 87% to 40%, mocking their earlier review's emphasis of graphics over gameplay and describing the game as "a decidedly average Space Harrier clone that certainly looks great, but plays horribly". Amiga Format, for instance, greatly praised the Amiga CD32 version's graphics and soundtrack, but described the gameplay as "a merely slightly better than average" rail shooter. Reception Ĭritics generally rated Microcosm as having excellent graphics but very limited and poorly designed gameplay. A promotional version of the game was later developed for Pfizer. The DOS and FM Towns versions feature an exclusive soundtrack by Rick Wakeman, which was replaced in other versions with a soundtrack by Tim Wright for licensing reasons. The game engine was later purchased by Fujitsu for £250,000. The lead platform was the FM Towns, and development was funded in part by Fujitsu with the aim of making it a launch title for the console-styled version of the platform, the FM Towns Marty. A port for the CD-i was planned and then canceled, but a prototype exists. In 1991, the game was first seen in a demo for the Amiga CDTV. The game used the latest Silicon Graphics computers at the time to render the graphics as realistically as possible. Cybertech, however, learns of this plan and injects Korsby with their own piloted submarines shrunken down to a microscopic size to destroy Axiom's droids and prevent them from controlling Korsby's mind. Axiom injects Cybertech president Tiron Korsby's body with microscopic droids designed to penetrate his brain and control his mind. Axiom also claims that Cybertech is responsible for the death of Axiom's former president. Because of this, poverty, crime and disease are rampant in the cities. Because of heavy mining operations on the planet from the corporations, most of Bodor is uninhabitable due to pollution, forcing 87% of the population onto 2% of the planet's land.
