In 1990 I bought this game and I liked the tune so much I recorded it on tape and used to listen to it in public! Still like it. Great game anyway!

Mr Marmite (James) you cheaky bugger, you did not right the design for it as I recall I did! And I still have the drafts to prove it!!!

The Spectrum and Amstrad versions were written by Real Time. This version was meant to be written by JOn Stephenson (see Mrs Mop) but he was not up to the job. Christoph wrote this version in record time and did a good job.

PS. I wrote the design for it

Pretty nice space shooter. The graphics are good and the sound is also allright. Game-play is OK for a while.
