This is a poor relation to Acornsoft's Snapper. However, it does run in 16K.
It is fun to play, but what a shame it does not have auto-repeat on the keys. I do wish there was a standard set of keys for movement on the screen. The standard cursor keys are OK for left and right, but for up and down they are a pain.
Why didn't Acorn/BBC design a proper directional cursor pad? Can I suggest that left and right are always either the appropriate cursor keys, or that they are the Z and X keys. For up and down, I would suggest : for up and ? for down.
