Cool! A remember we had another game from the same authors. Pretty similar concept with a starship. A remember that they cleverly had an illusion of depth in that one by making the mountains in the background move slower than the foreground.
Oh snap I played this on a Model III back in the day one summer. I have a Model 1 in pristine condition in travel case with monitor, that I have never fired up, and two Model IIs, one with the 8 inch drives. I didn't know the Model 1 could play Sea Dragon.
I bought a Model 3 in 1981 and remember this. You try working with a resolution of 127 and see how creative you need to get! A great game, as was Eliminator ...
My older brother had a Trash80 model 1 level 2 w/ the green screen. I used to have to load games on it with a freaking casette player. The damn thing didn't originally have a hard drive or anything resembling a floppy drive.
Not played this game in 25 years, brings back great memories from my childhood. Still have the Model I in the loft, must dust it down one of these days to see if it still works. Thanks for posting this.
Ohhh memories. Thanks for uploading.

Ok so that's the version I remember from when I was 5yo. Used to play this on my father's TRS80. Ok, now I feel old

There was NOTHING this machine could not do. It was awesome! (until the Model 3 came out...then...damn!)

I had the Atari version of this. Better looks and sound, but it got very tough!
