Another Misfit game! Time to bring out the Vic out of the closet I think!

Incredible! Not my cup of tea, only playable at child level for me , but technically impressive. It looks very much like a Speccy game!
Re: New release : Super Starship Space Attack (16k)
That is very cool - reminds me a bit of Goldrunner on the ST.
One minor criticism is that the typeface is quite hard to read - does it really say 'BONER MODE' underneath 'PRESS FIRE'...?

Scrolling shoot 'em ups are always in style... thank you!
Any technology distinguishable from magic is insufficiently advanced.

Re: New release : Super Starship Space Attack (16k)
I will also try that mode you were talking about... Hard action I guess.
Re: New release : Super Starship Space Attack (16k)
Very nice game. Slick gameplay and graphics. Thumbs up from me.
Re: New release : Super Starship Space Attack (16k)
I'll be trying this ASAP. Those graphics look very good. More like a Spectrum game than a VIC 20 one.
Re: New release : Super Starship Space Attack (16k)
Looks, fantastic. Thanks for this.
I especially like the intro music and the retro/arcade style ditties between the levels.

Great game, even if I suck at it. I'm listening to the intro-music right now, great song - too few games on the VIC have such snappy music!
