Can you guess this old game from just one screenshot?
I’ll update this post with the answer at 5pm today if no one has guessed before then. Or if you do guess it before then, feel free to share your memories of a classic game.
Good luck!

I could of course be totally wrong. ;)

Wednesday, October 21, 2009 at 10:24 AMUridium for the C64 by the looks of things.
One of the first C64 games I bought (with my own money, not my parents) way back when.. Such a great shooter for it’s time (and still holds up alright now too in the few times I’ve fired it up recently).

For those who guessed Uridium, the difference is that in Sanxion the play area above the score is actually a top-down view of the side-scrolling main screen. You had to keep an eye on both perspectives.

Wednesday, October 21, 2009 at 11:42 AMAs a huge fan of Uridium and an artist on Uridium 2 I can confirm that it’s NOT Uridium…
Don’t know what the game is though the art is VERY much in the style of Andrew Breybrook.
