This is what Arnold Schwarzenegger will go onto do when he has quit making any more Terminator movies, as an X-Terminator, get it?

Bad joke. Anyway, this game was apparently released by Novagen Software in 1988 so its possibly created by the great Paul Woakes, though I'm not so sure. It says the developer is "Quantum Design" and this is the only game I could find that they/he made.

Its a decent shooter in which you must rescue a bunch of juicy colonists from their virg... erm, aliens. Your hero has weaponry which he can buy more of at the end of each level when the computers are temporarily online.

Good presentation, sounds, and OK if somewhat confusing graphics. This is something of a hidden gem and quite playable.
