Electric
Boys Entertainment software were
certainly a busy bunch of lads, and this was another title which
was being penned for a C64 commercial release by the C64 hero's
of its commercial death.
As
with Defensive, the preview only shows a previously scrapped game
which never got completed, and EBES were to do up the game considerably
for the C64 and add support for people with Ram Link's.
Added
features were believed to be video footage and more colourful
graphics and intense gameplay. Possibly in the same vein as Metal
Dust now promises many hungry C64 gamers.
No
work actually got started, so all that remains is quite a pleasent
sideways shoot em up, with some nice graphics and music.
The
reason for it being scrapped?... simply no support for EBES and
their previous releases, doomed anything else that they had planned
for the C64.
TMR/Cosine highlighted that there was a preview out there which has been cracked and claimed to be a 106% version, because they debugged it and added a titles page, so its actually halfway to being a game. But where is this preview?... Well, thanks to
Asphodel, here it is:

Worth
checking this preview out just for the cool bubble like bullets..
Another
promising EBES game on the scrapheap...
Frank.
