Space Was Just The Beginning...
Ducks. They're dumb. Not content with getting themselves stuck in various
predicaments across space, they've now discovered time travel... and are stuck
in various new predicaments across the fouth dimension. Or something. Like I
say, they're dumb.
Beak To The Future is only compatible with registered copies of the original
Ducks game. Both Ducks and BTTF are available from
the Hungry Software store.

Above And Beyond
The Beak To The Future add-on features several new objects, including...
- Fizzy wine: Inflates any duck which drinks it to an extra-ordinary
size. The inflated duck then floats off around the level, letting another duck grab
hold and use it like a hot-air balloon.
- Porcupines: Not as cute and cuddly as they sound, and
they don't sound all that cute and cuddly to start with. Metal
spheres covered in spikes which can roll through crowds of ducks
without slowing down. See the screenshots.
- Jaws of death: Crush ducks at over twice the speed of the
green killer hands from the original game. It's still possible for
orange ducks to get by... just a lot more difficult.
- Cacti: Common and dangerous. Not a good combination.
- Moving transporter receivers: Normal receivers, but on
wheels. Better check where it's got to before you teleport.
- Badly-wired transporter receivers: After a duck appears
at one of these it overloads, exploding a second later leaving only a pile
of glass shards.
- Floating transporter receivers: Does exactly what it says
on the tin. Arrive at one of these and there's no promise it'll be
at ground level.
- Tortoise: Much like a heavy flying saucer or seagull,
but indestructible due to its thick shell.
- Loose wires: Thrashing about madly and sparking, these have
a terrible habit of frying any ducks which happen to get too close.
- Time machines: Of course, the aim of each level is now
to load the ducks into time machines, to zap them back to... um...
whenever they came from.
In fact, there are so many changes that it's a bit difficult to imagine what the
game even looks like... which is why it's fortunate that there's a page of
Beak To The Future screenshots.
