Roving Robot

Overview

In this game, you control a Roving Robot that is trapped in some haunted mines, and whose only means of escaping is to collect all the keys lying scattered around the cavern, kill all the aliens which endlessly pursue him and return to the door at the top right of the screen. You are equipped with a laser, and a jet backpack, enabling you to float around the screen. You will die if you collide with one of the aliens, either the moving cyan type or other types of nasty including the dead type that infest the walkways, and the chequered balloons that appear later on in the game. You can collect other objects for bonus points, such as diamonds, fruit and the keys. The game progresses as you complete each screen, and after each screen, more aliens chase you, up to a maximum of 16, and more obstacles kill you. The game features a sound on/off function, a bonus robot if you pass cavern 5, and many various sound and graphic effects. The game was releaed as a type-in program in Games Computing magazine, issue June 1984. For some reason the game was called Android Antics in the magazine and is also incorrectly shown as being for the Oric 1 / Atmos 48K.
