"Fighter Pilots Needed In Sector Wars... Play Astro Blaster Restoration"
Vigo:
I played a little of this today and realized I used to play this as a kid. Damn that was a fun game! I never remembered the name, mostly because I had gotten a c64 knock off named Threshold that I ended up playing for years.
Excellent game brother!

Thanks, brother!
I remember rediscovering it in MAME a few years ago. Hearing the audio callout brought it all back.
Mike A:
I am going to load that up on my vertical cab and check it out.

It's a great game, you can easily play with a joystick even though it uses buttons to move left or right. You use the fire button to fire your weapon, and the next button over for activating Warp. Here's a tip, on some of the Waves where the aliens scroll sideways, if you use warp and you destroy the entire wave before it reaches the other side of the screen, you activate one of the bonuses. I pretty much use warp for just that.
Vigo:
Thanks for the tip. I was trying to figure out the whole bonus thing.
