Thought maybe since this game had similar controls to Ripoff I might be able to play it.
NOPE!
Never got anywhere on it at all.

Actually, I had no idea he was going to do that.
I was just pointing out that it wasn't quite midnight yet.
Look forward to watching it later.

As you observe Eastern Daylight time, GMT is 4 hours later. (8 pm there is midnight GMT)
When you are on Eastern Standard Time, GMT is 5 hours later (7 pm there is midnight GMT)
GMT doesn't change.

Congratulations des.
Have you heard anything from SlikStik?
If not I'll email them an inquiry about the spinner I ordered and send you a copy.
(Everyone please send Paypal a nastygram complaining about their shunning of eastern Europe)

Nothing
GMT time:
For example here:

I down-left corner you have GMT time.
About demon:
Game is simple until you get 100K (I do 100k at every time with first 2 lives) and next 'shooting-demon' bullets and reaction are fast, at 130k very fast and my method from inp is failed. I find new method from 130k for shooting to this demon but I didn't have too much time.
Points that give demon are depend from how many energy items you transport. Best if you transport 9 (19, 29, 39 ...) then demon give 1400pts for every shoot. For 8 - 1300, 7 -1200 ....1 - 600, 0 (10) - 500.

Nice ad
I remember playing Demon Attack quite a bit, when I had Mattel Intellivision. Gameplay was quite close to Phoenix, having mothership and all.
