This is the 19th video in a new series where I am going to highlight each of my classic games I wrote for both the original Spectravideo and MSX computers.
In this video we have my take on another one of my arcade favourites Moon Cresta, which I called Sky Base.

This game has lots of interesting features, such as a High Score table and animated intro screen, animated start and end sequences and even a boss. All written completely in Basic with no machine code. Another game that I think plays quite well.

The source code is available to download and play with at my website here:

If you are interested in the Beyond Basic articles and the book mentioned in this video, you can find it on Amazon in both Kindle and printed editions here:
