@RetroGameGeeks @Amiga_Paradise @Amiga_Square @AmigaReposts @RetroFeeder @PrinceWatercres @Cerabelum1 @e3man01 @FlynnRetroGames @jasha_jasha @MissMiaw Funny, since it's a Delphine Sofware game, I didnt know the english version of the title. Here in France it is called "Croisière pour un cadavre", so classy 😉

@RetroGameGeeks @ArcadeQtrMaster @FlynnRetroGames @jasha_jasha @RetroFeeder @CiskoNokia @PrinceWatercres @Cerabelum1 @e3man01 @stewie55uk I have been really tough on this conversion to the Spectrum in the past, honestly for me it was that it released 6 months after the jawdropping version of R Type so had a lot to live up to. Other than that though, it was a fun shoot’em up and good fun. Worth a blast!!
