This website contains an archive of files for the Acorn Electron, BBC Micro, Acorn Archimedes, Commodore 16 and Commodore 64 computers, which Dominic Ford has rescued from his private collection of floppy disks and cassettes.

Some of these files were originally commercial releases in the 1980s and 1990s, but they are now widely available online. I assume that copyright over them is no longer being asserted. If you own the copyright and would like files to be removed, please contact me.

Written by Neil Raine.

The idea of the game is to knock out all the meteors without colliding with
them. Little meteors, being harder to hit, score more than big ones.

Controls:

     Z - rotate left
     X - rotate right
 Shift - accelerate
Return - fire
