What a great nostalgic feeling! The sound, "millions of colors" in the intro

Not so nice looking on the C64.

@MIK Huh, I've never seen the C64 version before, but after looking it up, I agree with you. Those background rasters really don't seem to help. Nearly the same game... but I'd say I prefer the C16 version
@Unreal Now you must submit your high score for this game (That's the rule I just made up.) There are some insane scores already, but can you (at least) beat mine (131,110)?

I actually ended up doing a POKE for the C64 version to take out the colour cycling entirely, which made it look like the C16 version. I guess Shaun Southern was going for the full on Jeff Minter psychedlic look.
Or if you didn't have access to a cartridge or reset switch, I also did a full listing to type in and RUN before loading the game which did the same thing.
