I had forgotten about this game completely before MAME came along. Pulled up the game completely unsuspecting and was greeted by an old friend:
"Ah, a creature for my amusement!"
He's the main thing I remember about the game.
I like these Asteroids type of games, but I find this one really hard. Lots of enemies flying around and not much maneuvering room.

There are additional files needed in the ROMset to play it in .106 as opposed to .101.Koza wrote:I can't get this game to work... says I have some rom files missing... do I need another Bios for this game? I thought I downloaded all of them...
The most recent version of the ROM will work with either version. The older one will work with .101 but not .106.
I will explain the situation in greater detail in PM.

Hehe, cat is hero in this round
I have one question, maybe someone know answer. In game we can read:
"To dock destroy enemy fleet before reinforcements arrive."
But where is real key for docking? Can someone dock in 100% after every stage?
EDIT
I forget. Under score counter is next 2-digit counter. For what is this counter?
