[bluetonic78]

Ah totally unreal mate, only just sent you a message about this about an hour ago -

I go and do a random search and up pops your name! Sweet.......great game, one of my favourite 8 bitters without question and one of the first games I think I completed :)

@bluetonic78 Funny old world mate :)

[Xyphoe]

Great game!!!

[ash81b4u]

@Xyphoe Yes it is. Featuring all my fave cpc games in the coming months.

[poptartlove2010]

Not bad....maybe you can demonstrate your breakdancing skillz in the next vid??? :-P

[ash81b4u]

@poptartlove2010 I used to be able to breakdance a bit but I would probably pull a muscle these days :)

Well played. As the enemies are quite random, you never really know if a stray bullet may kill you when you dont expect it. Still, quite fun and easy to get into.

[ash81b4u]

@CholoCPC Thanks. I watch your videos and learn :)

[SonyPSgamer]

That was the one! Thanks for doing the vid. You played it really well too. It was quite tricky from what i remember - all about the diagonals. My mate at the time had a trick of rotating the joystick and hitting the fire button at the same time resulting in a halo of bullets. Handy for the final level screens. Does the glitch stop the other guys coming out of the outpost? I seem to remeber something about that. Thanks again.

[ash81b4u]

@SonyPSgamer You're welcome. Not sure if the glitch stops more soldiers coming out or not. Check out Cholocpc's channel. He has done the whole game over 2 videos.

Great stuff! Looking forward to more 464 game footage.

[ash81b4u]

@P5ychoFox Thanks mate, more soon.

Definitely one of my favorites in CPC.

I really loved to kill the enemies who were trying to execute the POWs!

And that low flying plane with its guns blazing was always striking fear to me.

Way to go Ash!

[ash81b4u]

@alex76gr Yeah I liked rescuing the POWs too. Cheers my friend :)

Excellent game.... I have the original Alligator release for the MSX... would play this for hours - I agree, def better than commando. The Amstrad version - certainly has a lot more colour than the MSX version. Which amstrad emulator are you using? Great gameplay vid

[ash81b4u]

@1msx2go Cheers mate. No emulator, this is the real deal on the Amstrad cpc. My first Amstrad vid shows how I have it all set up. The Amstrad did have some nice colours.

[poppichicken]

ah yes, what a superb game this was.

the lack of scrolling makes this a more thoughtful, tactical game.

just curious - how are you capturing your vids?

the colour is very intense! :o)

[ash81b4u]

@poppichicken I am using my mobile phone for all my vids for now. A Sony Ericsson C905. My cpc is hooked up to my tv. The cpc does have some vibrant colours.
