It was written by Microdeal, who seems to be a European publisher putting out numerous other games for the Amiga and ST. Most of these tend to be pretty good, in my opinion. Do others have suggestions for good arcade-style games on the Amiga? There seems to be a shortage of this type of game! -- Dean Brunette {ucbvax,etc.}!hplabs!oliveb!olivej!dragon {ucbvax,etc.}!hplabs!oliveb!dragon-oatc!dean Olivetti Advanced Technology Center _____ _____ __|__ _____ 20300 Stevens Creek Blvd. | | _____| | | Cupertino, CA 95014 |_____| |_____| |__ |_____ 'Such a strange girl, I think I'm falling in love' --The Cure
