One cheat for this game press "R" and you will go to the next stage and earn 300 points (if you have all your lives), 200 points (if you have only 2 lives) and 100 points (if you have only one live). This game has no end.

shortest longplay ever

Aggh, purple! This is the first time I've seen this in colour, I'm so used to everything being green. Why do you shoot pizzas in this game eh?

[DestelloGloton]

@Hindleyak It's so funny how we all had names for the different enemies. I used to call your pizzas "fans". The purple ones were octopi, and the blue and purple were candy. :)

I had this the 12 game pack free with my 6128! The shop made a mistake since it was supposed to be given away free with the 464 (all on tape see). Some poor job who bought their 464 from boots missed out on 12 free games. I also got the 6128 collection pack (disk) and WC Leaderboard (tape) and Nemesis/Gradius (disk) and a free tape recorder and leads. All in for 299GBP with a color monitor.

Who needs F$%KING spectrum conversions when you've got your own very CR%P CPC games!

[ogicabp4u]

Absolutely amazing. Amsoft obviously invested lots of money into an Amsoft title such as this to show what the machine was really capable of. Just make sure you don't hit the escape key while playing otherwise it really is game over and you will have to reload it. Ahhh memories...chase HQ on the Amstrad sucked in comparison.

I've played this game! I agree is is awful, but without a doubt Bridge-it was worse! Someone should post a video of that game so everyone can see just how bad it was...

[MrAntagonism75]

CPC Game Reviews say this is "arguably the worst CPC game of all time". I say Bridge-it is worse.

[jr2nd]

@MrAntagonism75 there was worse.. animal vegitable mineral lol

[tibianusikik]

main "engine" wrote i assembler language but the rest - in basic. After *break* and "list" you can see basic-part :)

[PenultimateBadass]

Was this the one with a level-skip cheet, where you just had to press "R" to skip to the next level?

[kirkfnw]

Easily one of the best ever 8-bit games. Criminally under-rated. Absolutely ridiculous that this hasn't been remade yet.

[santorinisantorini]

This is a classic game, without a doubt.

[ogicabp4u]

@santorinisantorini yeah, unfortunately it is classicly crap!

[fozzy1138]

I used to play this all the time possibly because it was the fastest loading game I had. Used to go round and round through the levels and got pretty good at it. :-)

[gringolazlo]

hardest game ever.

[cpc4eva]

is that all the levels ?????

[Axelino]

Yes, after 10 levels, the galactic plague starts again from the level 1.
