Great game, good looks team

Played it back in the days on the first Gameboy, similar graphics, the same font. But where is that picture in the news from?

The news pic's a detail from the title pic. That one can be seen if you use the search-function with the game's name, and if you browse through the Arcade category.

You know, I actually played this thing on the Genesis originally, and I couldn't recall what on earth its name was. I do remember it creeped the heck out of me though, because the main enemy was this hideous-looking monster lizard thing. That and I was about 7 years old at the time.

Personally, I recommend hunting around for Gal Pani X, to all those who appreciate Qix. Granted, it's slightly adult, but the gameplay is the best variation on Qix I've seen. No line-running sparks to haunt you, but it's even harder dodging all those projectiles.

Hmm, a clone of Styx, methinks?

Or perhaps the other way round.

My 1982 copy of the "Usborne Guide to Computer and Video Games" mentions Qix but not Styx.

The original US game was Qix, but quite often, game names would change a bit for whatever overseas market they put it in. It's entirely possible that this game was called "Styx" somewhere else.

And on another note, it will not run on my XP sp3 system. Unfortunate.

This game gets hard fast, but it still is fun.
