ZX Spectrum Gyron 48K Game

This game was art in the making, and I think it was amazing, and I am proud I completed the Atrium Maze. Necropolis and Arena were beyond me. Still, maybe I have the time. Anyone want to take the challenge again? Would love to see a post of the solutions to all 3 mazes. Maybe one of the winners will show?

It would have been amazing if the Spectrum had this sound capabilities! What's the music?

So wanted to win that Porsche but it was such a tough game.

i remember being in awe of this game.

I was like "WOW, how did they do filled circles like that for the graphics" remember reading somewhere that the coder had written a special bit of code for it.

Great game. Where's the awe today :(

The prize was a Porsche 911 and it was won. The finalists had to compete head-to-head in a special version of the maze created just for the competition. This was later made available for sale as 'Gyron Arena.'

Written by my good friend Dominic Prior who also did the Spetrum Elite port while at Firebird. Amazing what turns up on YouTube.
