Description

This is a graphic and speed remake of the original by the original author. It did not sell as well as the original and is not as well known.

Take out all robots in the space ship by flying around on many floors via elevators. You have limited energy so you need to hack other robots to survive. Doing this also gives you better weapons to shoot robots. Once the game is completed, you get to play the same levels again, but the ship has a new name.

Editor note

While not being a C128 game per se, it does run smoother on a C128 due to using 2 MHz mode in top/bottom border for higher speed.
