Description

This is one amazing platform game from 1987. You are some of dude who walkaround a giant field pick up goodies, shoot enemies and solve some kind of puzzle. to advance. You have lots of abilities to move around. You can even go up by building some kind of temporarily bridge, which dissolves slowly. Take a teleport or take some flying object to move around. The game runs very very smoothly. Too bad it won't run that good in DOSBox, but luckily you can run the game without DOSBox. And look at the size of the game!
The original version wasn't working that good, because you needed a real CGA-card. Even DOSBox failed on rendering.

Not a bad port, but needs slowing down - actually, it runs the same as the other ports but without the hiccups

Published on several formats including Spectrum, BBC, MSX, and Atari XL, by Bubble Bus. According to Wikipedia: "The player controls BLOB (Bio-Logically Operated Being), whose starship has crashed on a planet. The crash destabilised the core of this planet, and you have to find its parts which are scattered all through the planet and fix it before it explodes. The natural inhabitants of the planet don’t like your presence and keep trying to kill you." The game has 512 screens, and the placement of objects, and the ones you need to repair the core, are never the same. The PC version came out in 1988.
