Bouncer

Published in Home Computing Weekly #23

You control a 'circle of antimatter' into which the bouncing aliens, who inhabit this planet, are sucked. But if the vortex you control is slightly off-centre then the vortex itself is itself destroyed.

If you cannot clear the area of bouncing beings before the stars twinkle their last then your time (and game) is gone.

The first two sheets are easy enough, with few and fairly slow bouncers to hoover into your antimatter, but on the third the bouncers bounce off the sky, needing fast thinking and mental geometry unless you are prepared to turn the VDU upside down!

Unfortunately, that's it - there are no extra revelations as you move through the game.
