SLAPFIGHT (ZX SPECTRUM - FULL GAME)
5Zeus presents Slapfight (un-emulated) for the zx spectrum, a true classic from the golden era of spectrum gaming which should not be forgotten alongside the software house and all programmers that were involved in making this game.
Year of release: 1987
Fist time i saw this it was on my Atari ST back in 1988, it came free when i bought the computer, i could never get very far in it as every time you died it sent you right back to the start so learned to dislike it for it's difficulty.
26yrs later i finally play it on the spectrum as i have to say apart from lack of music it's very good.
It moves nice and smooth, monochrome graphics but are quite detailed, several different beep and bop sounds as you fire away, get fired at and collect power-up icons, and the gameplay is quite fast, shame about the bloody ending,...typical of 8-bit shmups back then :-(
Not a bad shmup at all, give it a go!
I have used the invincibility poke so i could upload the entire game for your viewing pleasure.
Hope all you Spectrum fans enjoy this upload.
Please note: NONE of my game uploads are emulated in any way whatsoever, they are 100% original recordings by myself taken directly from the original hardware the game was intended for, that way you know you're watching the real thing.
I will also always state weather i am using any cheats in the game, if not mentioned then i am not using any.
