Using a heavy book, to keep the "space" key held down and his gun firing, you could manoeuvre the little man into a particular position on the screen where he would never be hit by any of the asteroids etc and you could leave it overnight to ramp up a massive high score. You could then brag about it in the playground the following morning Laughing

Belgium 2008 Range Rover Sport TDV8 HSE Buckingham Blue

First compy was one I built myself back in 1974, had to do it for the final exam of the course I was on. After that it was a ZX80 then a C64 then to a BBC B and a Aim 65 for work at the college, Got an Amiga then gave it to my eldest daughter and she still uses it of animation work.
This PC I'm using is getting a bit old now but it will still do for a while yet.
my favorite games have been Hired Guns on the Amiga, Elite on the BBC, Falcon 4 on the PC Sons of dogs come hither and get flesh

Horace always used to worry me a bit... he was seemingly just some eyes on legs. Mind you, a lot of game developers back then spent a lot of time coming up with weirdness. Remember there was a screen in Jet Set Willy called "We must perform a quirkafleeg"... what the Censored that was all about I don't know Wink
