The Rob Northen Copylock was a breeze - no complaints there. But this game has some really badly coded routines. I can only think to name this stuff the Screen 7 Syndrome. You'll see why when I release my High Steel install (another Screen 7 "quality" title) later ;-) Thanks to Codetapper and Galahad for our discussions about the possible problems behind this game - in the end it turned out to be something completely different - just goes to show what a little perseverance can do! The actual game isn't all that bad, a light shoot-'em-up which doesn't really reward a great deal, and is certainly no Silkworm/SWIV, but a short diversion nonetheless.
