Tanium
shoot'em up game for Commodore 64, 1988
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
It has been six years since you took the alien fleet single handed,
obliterating their asteroid bases, turning their motherships into expanding
clouds of vapour, grabbing those pieces of extra hardware for your trusty old
ship. Those where the days...
You retired to the planet Sloar inhabited by small furry animals. You wanted
to spend your last years playing sports simulations and mundane arcade
adventures surrounded by cute creatures.
But you become restless, your soul yearns for the thrill of the fight, to
battle against incredible odds.
Well here's your chance to do just that.
Once again the Intergalactic Federation needs your help...
The enemy has captured Tanium the second most strategically important planet
this side of the 'Sanvolgrani Rift', you must fly your 'Quariad' class
stealth fighter over the planet destroying as many enemy ships as possible,
if you destroy an entire formation then you can collect extra equipment for
your ship.
