Thank you very much to bring this gem to Neo Geo! Really appreciated. Played this game at Amiga first. Now on Neo Geo MVS. Installed the actual version today on real hardware MVS on a Backbit cartridge using the Mame files. Everything works great except the music. The sfx are hearable but no sound. There is click hearable behind from time to time but the sound is not working. If you have an idea and need real hardware get in touch i can test. And one feature is missing at arcades. Continues. Especially in 2 Player mode. Every Neo Geo game needs continues :-)

Good news, there's actually a new version launching soon with the music completely fixed! I'm holding off because I am wanting to launch V1.7 for Neo Geo, Amiga, and the new Mega Drive version together. Currently it is the Mega Drive version holding it back because there's a different music issue in Scorpion Engine which needs to be fixed. I'm hoping that V1.7 will be the final release for all platforms, so I can move onto the next game.
I did experiment with continues, and the game became incredibly easy with them. As such I introduced the dipswitch options as a compromise, where the player can change their starting lives and how much they need to score to earn an extra life 😉
