Sector 90

Moby ID: 42690

Description

Sector 90 is a side scrolling action game where the player has to fight their way into the inner-ring of a concentric-circled enemy base, plant an explosive and escape within 90 seconds. Throughout the game, the player will find various puzzles / locks / keys / enemies to defeat. The enemies consist solely of a single type of robot, and the puzzles are all very simple (played on the status panel ) and simply involve hitting some sort of 'choose' key at the correct split-second.

Truly and utterly awful - I should know, I wrote/converted it

The Good
Kept me employed for the 4 weeks or so it took to port it ;-)

The Bad
Everything. Far too slow, very hard, awful graphics

The Bottom Line
An accurate conversion of a truly awful original C64 game. I had no choice in porting this POS to the spectrum, and hated everything about it. See screenshots: I even hid my name as coder unless certain keys are held down on the joystick-screen. Best forgotten, included in DB only for completeness.
