Santron

Santron is a fast-paced vertical shoot-em-up for the Commodore 64 (PAL).

This game is a special Christmas version of Neutron, a game that was entered in RGCD's C64 16KB Cartridge GameDev Compo 2019.

Note: Although the game has been coded for PAL, it will run quite happily on an NTSC machine, just at a faster speed.

The Game

Jack Frost is determined to ruin Christmas, so he has spelled various items associated with Christmas! Use the new S.A.N.T.A.H.A.T.01 space fighter and put an end to Jack's mischief!

Be on the watch out for perilous peppermint swirls, killer snowmen, kamikaze icicles, plasma spitting sugar mice, charging turkey legs, and other assorted twisted adversaries.

But help is on hand, so lookout for useful floating presents, each with a power-up bauble inside...

Only you can save Christmas, so strap in, and blast off!
