I seem to recall it being a space fighter flying along shooting enemy craft and each hit was followed by an actual explosion. This seemed revolutionary at the time, though I recall the gameplay being shit even then and it was expensive.

Them or Galaxy Ranger. You can look through games here to find it: http://www.dragons-lair-project.com/games/ Smitdogg Reged: 09/18/03 Posts: 16877 Send PM Re: Name this game [Re: Phil Bennett] #258234 - 06/24/11 09:11 PM Reply Wow that looks terrible.

You can look up the games on youtube and watch some of the game play. That should help him remember which one it is Windows 11 64 bit OS Intel Core i7-10700 Nvidia GeForce RTX 2060 6GB 32GB DDR4 RAM mogli MAME Fan Reged: 01/26/08 Posts: 1956 Send PM Re: Name this game [Re: Envisaged0ne] #258278 - 06/25/11 05:06 AM Reply > I think it's either Astron Belt or Galaxy Ranger. > > You can look up the games on youtube and watch some of the game play.

But (as I haven't played it, I don't know whether) they might've included in Firefox the scene in the movie where Gant decides to push the throttle some, and he's above some mountains, and then dips into the ranges. Consider it high comedy....sincere tragedy....whatever...don't take it personally.
