Domark released many versions of this game, and my favourite versions were 16 bit ST/Amiga ones. Still, this Spectrum version I have played it a couple of times and it plays ok but it is a little slow. Music so so and no game sound. Anyway, this is dedicated to Vektor Grafix and Domark for keeping me entertained with this one for many a winter evening. Extra effects by original Star Wars Arcade game and the film music intro.

Not a bad effort all things considering. gotta play the MAME though really ;-)

The Speccy had a lot of potential for its time with the faster Z80 over the 6502 in the other batch of computers at the time. It just sucks that Sinclair used the ULA for graphics, instead of using custom graphics and sound processors like Atari and Commodore.

I think the most amazing part is Google Adds picked up the sound fingerprint from the Speccy, so you could buy the original track from the movie.

When I had this for the Zx Spec 48k it had sound during the game.

nice music, sounds like an orchestra of blue-bottles.
