RetroGaming Shorts Part 075 - Just Yer Basic Missile Command

Just Yer Basic Missile Command 1991 (Amiga)

This PD Missile Command clone is the version I played the most. The graphics looked really sharp for the time - 640x400 interlaced!

I love the smooth fast action. It's the sort of game design where the programmer clearly played it over and over and kept bumping up the speed and numbers of enemies to pump up the difficulty to taste.

The result is usually a game that is WAY too hard for me. But in this case, the generously large explosions kept things manageable to me.

As a result of this game, most Missile Command ports/clones look really sedate to me.
