Another smart shooter from the prolific fingers of Jeff Minter. One of 6 games released in 1983, this is a twist on his Gridrunner concept except this time you are the two guns on the horizontal and vertical axes. Up and Down moves the gun on the right, Left and Right moves the gun at the bottom and fire makes them both shoot. It's a very simple setup but it makes for a surprisingly difficult game (yes I am that bad at it).
It's classic Minter, an arcade game in your home with simple graphics and sound and a steep difficulty. Absolutely worth a play.
