What a fantastic game this is.
Quick warm up go 73,150 (34) :grin:

For those new to this one... shoot everything; don't crash into the edges!!! Try and collect fuel now and then by flying over it (pull back to go slow over it and then shoot it too!). Shoot the bridges to get to the next level; if the tank is crossing you get more points. Planes and Hot-air Balloons are worth a few bob. People struggling to play using the emulator may want to try mapping two keys to hold down say Shift as back and Control as fire then use the other hand for left and right only...

Have fun every one :)
