LAST STAR SYSTEM

A brand new evasion survival mini game for the Commodore 64 inspired by early 8 bit classics. You are Aegis Guzmán, the last explorer of the Space Frontier Force, aboard the Sentinel Quantum Wren 144: an unarmed survey ship, hull-mounted instruments and nothing else. The wormhole home closed behind you. The Guachiman ... an alien lifeform the watchman of the star system, a huge cephalopod the size of a small moon ... hunts you, patiently in circuits. It cannot cross the boundary at the far edge of the system. Remember that. It is the only wall it respects.

- Harvest dark matter in the blue violet survey band, evade the rocks, and feed the antimatter charge

- Phase Charge from level 3 — two seconds of invincibility, one chance to use it well

- The DMZ: safe, but nothing living crosses it free — the toll is five points

- 8-directional flight, joystick (port 2)

- Runs on VICE, TheC64, Commodore 64 Ultimate, or on an original C64 with a flash cartridge — via the included ROM file

Survive. Score. Open the way home. The Guachiman has no such orders.

Note: Works best in PAL: the sounds are tuned to the PAL clock, and frame timings are designed for 50 Hz. It should run on NTSC, just a touch faster.
