Brought
to the attention of GTW by Commodore Zone magazine from their
Star Wars special edition.
"Empire
Strikes Back"
is (Surprise Surprise) based on the famous Star Wars film, but
is not the official game, but a rather groovy looking Defender
clone.
Fans
of the Atari 2600 VCS version of
"Empire Strikes Back" by Parker Bros, will instantly
recognise the game, with the addition of great music and cool
graphics. This is essentially a conversion of the VCS game, and
not the arcade (Which was vector based).
Currently
GTW lacks information on the game, apart from some credits which
you can find to the left. Rob Hubbard's music has been ripped
from another game, so you can assume that Rob was not to be the
main musician. Maybe they had someone else in mind for later?
The
exact details of the plans for the game is also quite shady too.
Nothing suggests that any company were due to sell this, and only
contact with the developers can shed more light.
Until
then, enjoy a gorgeous parallax scrolling preview of a promising
Star Wars game..

Lea is going nowhere just yet...
