[c64] Flying Shark (1987)

Played to the end of level 2 where I died the first time, then I cut straight to high score.

Everything (tanks, boats, turrets and planes) shoot aimed high velocity bullets which are camouflaged in certain places such as in the jungle and especially over water. In addition there's very little time to react, because game area is smaller compared to the arcade version and everything still seem to move equally fast.

@anparton Ah, so you're the reason I'm in to crazy shmups then. We had a demo version that I used to play when I was about 6. I remember it took forever for me to get the end of the demo, heh.

Music is awesome.

Can't believe I'm seeing this again. I actually wrote this C64 version! not the most playable game ever - much too hard - but it was my first, all written in 3 months in my bedroom :)
