Hydra

Note: When trying to make a RoadBlasters clone on the Lynx, do better than Hydra did. While the game is pretty enough, the gameplay isn't all that good. Collision detection is off, even more so when you're turning. It's hard to get the fuel balls when there's too many enemy ships to shoot at. And I often run out of fuel and crash into ships, two things I don't do on RoadBlaster on the NES. And when the game is over, the screen shakes for about half a minute and pressing buttons frantically does nothing, so if you want to play again, you either have to turn the Lynx off and back on again, or sit there and wait for the stupid game over screen shaking to stop. A nice try, but ultimately falls flat on its face. :thumbsdown:

Yuck! I have Hydra for the C64 and belive me the C64-Version is even crappier than this.The graphics are even uglier and the gameplay is slow and dull!! This game sucks!! :ponder:

I just wonder on how many systems this bummer was released... I think it was also on the Amiga but i can't say for sure.
