On looking at the 2 versions they are quite similar. This looks like the initial version I gave to Anil (at ANCO). From my vague recollection, in the final version I sent to Anco there was a bit at the beginning where you were flying through space with aliens firing at you. I can't remember why I didn't use that version for Mastertronic.
With the enemy sprites, I was trying to get more of a Sanxion look (which is where I got the idea of the screen layout from). The problem on the C16 was always balancing speed of drawing sprites with quality of graphics. I wanted the screen to scroll as fast as possible and gave up on the more detailed (better?) sprites. And besides, I spent most of my time getting the rainbow in the border to not flicker (too much).
