Enjoying some Actual Computer Gaming History at comp club today - playing a little of the Lander Demo in an Acorn Archemedies (A3000). Lander of course begat Zarch, and Zarch begat Virus (when it got converted to other machines). Of course, I’m as rubbish as I always am with it. No surprise!

Check out Orion Patrol on the BBC Micro by Angus Hughes - it’s Zarch/Virus for an 8-bit computer! www.bbcmicro.co.uk/game.php?id=...

I was gobsmacked by Zarch when I first saw it. Suffered from Braben’s uncompromising take on 3Cs though!
