This is a straight port from the ZX Spectrum version.
It even uses the exact same Z80 code and probadly (pun) use "emulation" for the graphics...(probably coded in 1 bit... in a 2 bit per pixel mode...ouch...).
Only good point ? no colour clashes on CPC but slowlier framerate bacause the code wasn't really CPC friendly.
The Amstrad CPC had the best graphics capabilities of the 8 bits at the time (or rather, between the Spectrum and C64) its a shame they weren't used in this game - this looks like a spectrum port tbh, which is probably what it was :)
The arcade version of this game really isn't all that great. I played a port of the arcade version on PS2 Midway Treasures 1. Its an okay game in orig form.

BTW the arcade suxxed anyway.

It's pretty impressive when you compare it to the other 8 bit ports.

I cant believe how much respect I have for someone who was actually able to play this game for a full round. :/ , it cost £9 or $15 dollars over here

I was way too distracted by all of the cursing, but this is an awful Speccy port.
During all of this, I was feeling very sorry for the PS3. Too bad Sony fucked it all up, eh?

Actually, I'm sure that I stole that line from either James or Armake. Ahhh, the magic of plagiarism.

to me, it reminds me of the animated scenes in the video for A-Ha's "Take on Me"

The visuals look much better than I expected, too bad the game moves at 2 frames a second.
