by mattbin. Comment: "An exciting and enjoyably difficult game. Although the graphics are not amazing, this was the first major 3-D maze game release, and is an obvious precursor to Wolfenstein and Doom." (2005-03-10 11:29:28Z)

by Dave__Dunmall. Comment: "Hugely underrated 3D maze shoot-em-up. Very atmospheric without relying on amazing graphics." (2003-04-01 04:21:11Z)

Early Atari documentation list
Submitted by Gregg Woodcock (woodcock@bnr.ca) Here is a pretty complete list of documentation for Atari's early arcade video games. Note that "TM" stands for "Technical Manual" and "DP" stands for "Drawing Package [supplement]" which was later renamed to "SP" which stands for "Supplement Package". I am not sure what "CO" stands for but the "C" could be for "Correction" because most of the CO documents were errata or addendums to the manuals. In addition, most Atari games had "ST" documents which w

--- 720 --- (Contributor: unknown) In the ramp section, levels 8, 9, and 10: holding down the kick and jump buttons simultanously on the lip of the ramp will boost your air. This trick only works when you're going the correct speed (usually your third or fourth jump), and only once (as far as I can tell) per ramp session per level. ----------- Afterburner ----------- (Contributor: Anthony D.
