Requires 1050 orXF551 drive. A fabulous looking
one or two player game that uses the full facilities of the XL or XE
machines. The top class soundtrack runs on all machines but on a 130XE
the extended RAM is used to give a choice of soundtracks. The game is
played either by two players or one against the computer and involves
two craft at top and bottom of the screen who try to blast each other,
and various bonus objects, through a series of deflector gates. First
you must break through your own, and then your opponent's, barrier in
order to score a hit, but careful planning is required as the deflectors
could force your shot back into your area and you could end up blasting
yourself! Graphics are good with neat split scrolling to advance levels
and the soundtrack is awesome. 100% machine code from the Continent
which will give you a challenging time whilst marvelling at the quality
of the Freeware releases now becoming available on the Atari Classic.
Also on this disk are a couple of bonuses in the form of The Small Demo
with nice music and bouncing bars, and a multicolour sprites demo.
