Shuttlebug inspiration ;)
The excellent game by Dave, Shuttlebug, was inspired by this old coin op, Spectar (which I hadnt seen until today!):

In fact Mole Rat and Shuttlebug would have been Speccy versions of Targ and Spectar respectively.
I made the mistake of asking the copyright holders for permission and they said no!
I knew about Targ, but didnt seem to remember Spectar :)
Anyways your conversions were better than the original games, and thats something in the Spectrum ;)
