Hey, listen to this music.  It's nearly a rip-off of the Star Wars theme, modified just a bit!  Sneaky!

Definitely a lot of strategy in this game--go for easy points or take risks for bigger points...

Had a single quick go (I'm coding at the minute) but I got 31750, will need to fire up my cab with a spinner on it this weekend, although its vertical so that'll be a pain.

jasonbar:

I have Marquees turned on on my cab.

Oddly, this is a horizontal game that uses a vertical marquee, and my cab's monitor is horizontal.

---> smaaaaalll playscreen.  I can barely read the scores.  Might have to turn off the marquee on this game...

Just wondering (as this is a game I may compete in), on my control panel, I use the trackball for this game as I don't have a spinner.  Would that be a violation of the nature of the contest?

No. (You think I use buttons on Asteroids and such?)

Ahh. It's only vertical seeming because it's coupled with the bezel.

Now I remember why I hated this game back in the day, and probably why it didn't last: the AI sharpshooting is too good.
