"A truly brilliant conversion! Great fun to play, faithful to the arcade and all round fabulous presentation! C64 owners must have cried seeing this after playing their pitiful conversion hehehe! My only complaint is that the speed controls are a little odd and behave strangely, and longevity wise you'll get a little bored after a while - it's a game best left for a weeks or months before you blast through it again, normally you can get quite far on your first go but the prospect of going through tons of levels again can be a little off-putting."

"A good conversion... could have been much better with a bit more care. My biggest beef stems around the later levels, these levels introduced rock walls on either side of the plane with dodgy collision detection, whilst navigating within a narrow space resulting more often than not in sudden death. A rendition of the arcade music in-game was also missing, but despite the above the game as a whole held together really well. The Speccy 128k version just beats the CPC version as it doesn't suffer the same problems as the CPC. "

"This is a great conversion of a great game. The CPC version rocks, and is a must own/download by every CPC fan!"

"Get this one. NOW! One of the best conversions ever, with ultra fast, smooth scrolling and hectic action. A bit on the easy side, but great for lots of mindless fun! Great gfx (although small window), nice sound and off you go!"

"A very good conversion IMHO.The best thing about it was that it was insanely fast,as opposed to the PC version which was slower than a turtle with arthritis."
