This is the 18th video in a new series where I am going to highlight each of my classic games I wrote for both the original Spectravideo and MSX computers.
In this video we have my version of a game I used to like playing at the local arcade, Lunar Rescue. The arcade version uses Space Invaders hardware but delivers a much more complicated and interesting game that mixes elements of a few games.
This game has quite good variety and challenge in the game play, and is one of my favourite games written by myself, especially for one that is pure Basic and does not use any machine code.
The source code is available to download and play with at my website here:

If you are interested in the Beyond Basic articles and the book mentioned in this video, you can find it on Amazon in both Kindle and printed editions here:
