2 shots?!? What kind of final boss fight are they trying to sell here? I kid, I kid, it’s very cool, definitely captures the vibe of Zaxxon/Marble Madness/Spy Hunter/Depeche Mode/New Order/Soft Cell.

Zaxxon was a great game. loved the idea of the weird perspective angle, and having to use the shadow to gauge where you were in relation to the terrain.

This looks great and all but I initially read this as Beach Patrol 2084 and now that’s what I really want.
“Can the Beach Patrol raise enough money from their car wash to keep the aliens from repossessing Earth?! With special appearance by Gil Gerard.”
