Originally released on the Atari home computers by Jon Williams (Not that one), this was ported onto the C64 by Mark Taylor. A bold Colourful platformer, the simple premise is to collect all the notes on each screen without running out of fuel. Regain fuel with the purple blobs. You can hover past gaps as long as you don't stop over them.
It's a decent little game with good use of colour and an easy to pick up and play control scheme. It does nothing badly but it was released into a rapidly filling genre and somewhat disappeared. Its one I remember picking up for 99p back in the day. Not one to recommend unfortunately.
