Awesome!
What is the official title of this game? Is it "Oflain16" (like the filename)? I don't see the title displayed in the game. It is temporarily available under that name on our site: Oflain16 - I'll be happy to change it if that's not the correct title.
Also, when I start it in YAPE, the display is garbled. I have to enter >FF12 0 from monitor to fix it. What emulator did you use to test your game? Or was it perhaps on a real C16?

The culprit for the bug is the sound initialization at $3B8F. It ends up writing $7C into $FF12, which messes up the charset, even though in the beginning the code sets $FF12 carefully.
For now, we can run the game with POKE15261,44:RUN, after which it works just fine.

I'm glad you like it, and thanks for the feedback. I used VICE, I haven't checked on a real machine although I do have them. I just changed the bugged line to clear only the 2 bits of the register which concern sound.
I adjusted the difficulty for a VIC 20, which has 25 columns and this version uses 32. I think I multiplied horizontal speeds and separations by the a factor of 1.25-1.3 but just noticed it feels a bit unfair. Maybe I should tweak parameters a little bit more.
Yes I like the title, it's spanglish for Offline. The lines of text with the instructions is retrieved from the REM lines and can be removed or translated at will.

Woohoo nice!! I think I remember some insanely long stream on youtube with people playing this game (or challenge themselves to play this game very very long).. Maybe it was (I don't remember) around a ??year??.. Nice that you brought this too the C16 / Plus/4!!

Very very well done, Javier! It's a lovable porting of one of the most obscure Berzerk's clones I0ve seen ever in my arcade standing's youthness. Hope to see more of these ones, there are dozens of Spanish ancient arcades which deserve a C16 conversion 
I dated Sidelsa 2021 May the 4th, was I right?
And I also added the last fixed version of Oflain16. ;)

That's nice you can remember the game from the era. We travelled by coach to Italy in the last year of school, I keep a magazine from that trip. That was big deal in the mid 80s.
I can't get to work the virtual keyboard in the web emulator. If it's not possible to emulate pressing F1, I'd add some other key to start the game.
If it is possible to add my user name, this was my 10th post but the registration form didn't show up.
