 Heres the new patch for this classic and excellent shooter. Back in 2014
 a problem regarding the palette was reported on the Mantis bugtracker so I
 had a look. Turned out there was nothing wrong with the palette at all but
 quite a few other problems so I ended up doing a completely new patch.
 The patch now uses real files so you will have to reinstall!

 I have added quite a lot of trainer options, if in-game keys are selected,
 the following extra keys can be used:

 1-5: select weapon, the selected weapon will have maximum power
   A: enable auto-fire
   B: smart bomb
   D: get destroyer
   E: refill energy
   H: get hunter
   I: get shield/invincibility
   L: add life
   N: skip level
   S: add speed


 If "Bad Extras have no Effect" is enabled nothing will happen if you collect a 
 skull, normally you would lose your weapon power, the auto-fire and 1000 points.
 All other trainer options should be self-explanatory.

 If you use any trainer option or the in-game cheat the high-score saving will
 be disabled!


 Enjoy this classic game from HD.
