  • Best scrolling shooters on speccy?I think one of most popular genres, besides mazes, was scrolling shooter. Can you remember any favorites to recommend, besides r-type

    Welcome AT! Happens to the best of us! ;)

    And how about Commando? Almost the whole screen scrolled beautifully with full colour, and it was a faithful reprodution of the arcade.

    And I agree about Lightforce. Superb scrolling!

    Penetrator was probably the first scrolling shooter I ever played on the Speccy and I still love it. Other goodies (which have all been mentioned) include Bedlam, R-Type and Commando. I also liked Typhoon and Guerilla War.
