- arcade perfect gameplay

- 50 fps vanilla A1200

really noticeable) and not very fast either

- no9: music

- PascalDe73: icon

Instructions:

5: insert coin

1/2: start game

arrows/joystick: move

red/ctrl: pump

blue/alt: drill

Bugs:

- sometimes game can kind of lock up (ex: level 11). Very rare, but still happens

  If that occurs, just wait a few seconds, monsters commit suicide,

  and game gets to next level.

v1.02 fixes the diagonals. The game uses a 4 way joystick so diagonal moves made the player freeze. Now at least he will move left or right like the original.

I've never played this before, but it's a great arcade game. I added it to the video along with other Amiga games released in January.

Hey, I hope you don't mind, but I found your game so good, I put it in this months best homebrew games video.

Another cool arcade conversion, but it still contains a serious bug that causes a crash & reboot if you insert the coins too quickly in succession with "5", see our video (tested with the disk version). Our German-language review can be found at 02:59:34. English subtitles are also available. 🙂

ok I see. You can insert coins using "fire" too and start game with "up" and "down". The keyboard is fully optional.

Awesome!

Great game, thanks.

Yay!!

Awesome!

Oh, yeah!

very good
