Deathrider ---------- (c) 2007 Matt Barber For the Sinclair Spectrum 16K/48K/128K Version 1.1 Description ----------- This is a variation on the classic Light Cycles theme from Tron. Guide the red rider across the grid, trying to avoid crossing your trail, hitting the walls or colliding with the yellow rider or its trail. Each round is to the death so try to force the yellow rider into crashing first. The more rapidly you can win, the greater a bonus you will score. As you work your way up the levels, the speed gradually increases to make things more challenging. You have three lives to start with and after you've lost all of them the game ends. Note: This game uses rainbow processing (i.e. rapid attribute changes) to give multiple colours inside a single character square which is not supported on all emulators. To see this in action, I recommend Spin v0.61 or later, with the Multicolour rendering option (in Tools->Options->Display->Emulation) turned on. Alternatively, a real Spectrum should do the trick.
