About the Game

Originally released in 1988 for the Commodore Amiga, this arcade-style top-down shooter saw players take on the role of members of a 4-man squad fighting through a treacherous jungle environment. Now, relive those days in this remastered emulated version.

Gameplay

With up to 4 players in co-op play, advance as far as you can through enemy territory. Switch between a heavy machinegun (which has longer range), a light machinegun (which fires faster) and grenades (which do damage in an area and can be thrown over obstacles).


This enhanced version introduces a number of modern features to this retro classic, including:

  • Saving/loading the game at any point
  • Support for most modern game controllers
  • Full control remapping
  • Image scaling and smoothing options
