AN UNHOLY ALLIANCE BETWEEN
Hewson and Llamasoft, has resulted in
the release of tridis Alpha billed as a
shoot-em-up with an intellectual twist.
John Gilby ship has to contend with
thousands of Licker Liners, Zebedee
Zonkers, Bubble Blasters and Cigger
Cruisers.
The intellectual bit occurs when you
progress to fighting on two planets at the
same time. It's just been released and
costs E8,95 on cassette and 112.95 on
disk.
Still in Space, Gremlin has released
Project Nova for the C-16/Plus/4. It's a
space combat simulation in which you
have the opportunity to be a space pilot.
There are 12 stages through which to
progress, starting at novice and building
up to the much coveted legendary
status.
Star Trek has now been a cult TV
series for 20 years and the offi cial
computer version will be launched in
late September by Beyond. Francis Lee
of Beyond said: "We are very proud to
be playing such an important part in this
major happening, and we have no doubt
that the Star Trek project will be the
most significant licensing deal signed
this year."
