STIL comment"I was thrown into the deep end with this. I had three weeks to produce the music and sound effects for the C64, Spectrum, and Amstrad versions, which included time to write a music driver for the C64. It was a good learning experience but I wish I had more time to work on the tunes as most of my efforts went into writing the software. I remember listening to the music form The Last Ninja and Wizball at that time, trying to figure out how they created the sounds so I could write my music driver. Martin Galway later told me how he created the high pitched wooden block 'pop' sound, which was achieved by running the driver at 240Hz." (GB)

L0rd3vyL:
Pirx's best remix yet. Very impressed. A little short, but other than that well composed and performed.
LMan:
Love the atmosphere.
NecroPolo:
A very good but unfortunately very short rendition. Despite that, it has the vibe.
Jojje70:
Not familiar with the original but I found this quite atmospheric and enjoyable. Maybe a little on the short side but still nice…
