It is based on vector graphics with 25 frames per seconds and also features multi dimensional and pixel precise scrolling. You have to pilot your ship through nine levels. The game was written with CPCtelera (http://www.octoate.de/wp/2016/04/20/cpctelera-v1-4-amstrad-cpc-game-engine-for-c-developers/), SDCC (http://www.octoate.de/wp/2016/07/14/small-device-c-compiler-sdcc-3-6-0/) and assembler.
