    Your mate and mine - Vyper68 - has flagged-up this neat-looking platformer/movie-tie-in/puzzler and blaster in the shape of Aliens Neoplasma and I must say the Speccy version has plenty to compliment it:



    Richie adds:

    "They are working on a 64 version but no Atari version sadly. Maybe they will port the 64 version when it’s finished."

    I've been enjoying watching the last surviving crew member make her way through the levels of this game and without wanting to sound patronising (but of course coming from an Oric freak it's bound to!), it really does play impressively on a Speccy(!) and we'll just have to see what improvements (if any) appear on the C64 version.

    My two little gripes I've already flagged with Richie in terms of the background music (annoying for me but I guess you can switch it off) and also the choice of computer font on the system VDUs sometimes lead to confusing messages as the lowercase "t's" tend to resemble "l's" but these are just minor snags in my book - overally, it's definitely worth a BLAST Speccy users.
