Title: Blitz (Psion 3a)
Post by: flash on April 29, 2010, 01:47:23 pm

Another *cough* original *wink* game.

This did actually have several different game modes (in a VCS sort of way), including one where your plane is invisible, except when you drop a bomb.

But overal the same basic game that even Jeff Minter has also coded when stuck for a game.

It had a pause mode with one of them swirly display things as well - see, there was just so much more than a simple Blitz/Bomber game  :)

Levels where you and the bomb are invisible confused the hell out of me.
Needles to say, it was quite tricky to snap a screen when you're invisible! :)
Cool game tho and that swirly Win95 screensaver effect is great!
