The Master of Space - Amstrad CPC
We bring you the game The Master of Space for Amstrad CPC from 1994. Do you know it and have you played it? If not, we hope you enjoy it and let us know what you think of this game ?
You fly above warships and your mission is to eradicate all threats, but your spacecraft must refuel every minute, picking up a capsule floating in space. When it appears, your weaponry is blocked. Start a race against the clock to find it quickly so you can blow up the enemy again. An unlikely mix between URIDIUM and OUT RUN, the game alternates phases of assault and capsule hunting, a clever excuse to slalom between ships and other obstacles.

The graphics are excellent and the sound effects are reminiscent of the old days. An important element in this type of game, the scrolling is smooth and fast. In contrast, the playing area is much smaller than that of Andrew BRAYBROOK's fabulous shmup and the surrounding skin is clearly too conspicuous. With twelve levels and a difficulty that gradually evolves from affordable to Herculean, this production would still have been proposed by a publisher specialising in "budget" priced games and should delight fans of old-fashioned shooters. A big thanks to Kukulcan who managed to bring together on a single floppy disk the game and its expansion available through a nice menu.
