About the Game

Originally released in 1986 for home microcomputers, this heart-pounding fast-paced surreal arcade racer from Mr Chip Software saw players take on the role of a ball racing down a patchwork runway through space. Now, relive those days in this remastered emulated version.

Contains the C64, Amstrad CPC, and ZX Spectrum versions of the game. The C64 version also features 2-player simultaneous play.

Gameplay

Race against the clock down a series of challenging hyperspace highways. Steer around or jump over deadly gaps, but watch out - you only have a limited amount of jumps! Some floor panels will have various effects, from changing your speed to making you jump automatically.


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
