New game for the ZX Spectrum



SHUTTLEBUG
This game adds to my original code from my earlier game Mole Rat!  16* Levels of fast furious shooting to defeat the might of the Pomodorian empire.  It's still inspired by some top 1980's Arcade favourites.  This one is likely to be released on cassette and available in some form or other, watch this space.


As usual, it's available as a TAP file from the World of Spectrum Archive.


*the game loops at this point with different graphics, so far I've reached level 80 without POKEs.
**The inlay displayed is actually incorrect, it has been pointed out that 'for any Spectrum' should include the 16k models also, which neither SHUTTLEBUG nor MOLE RAT do.  The WOS Archive contains a corrected version.

Geoscientist

The Geology of London!  This one was a bit of a struggle in the end, as I've not been to the big smoke for over 15 years and the reference book I was using was well out of date.  Hopefully my ignorance doesn't show too much.
