As weird as this seems, this game gets me a bit motion sick if I play it too long. I did three or four rounds and started feeling dizzy, like I do if I play a first person shooter. I think its all the shifting back and forth when you change direction; it messes with my head. Anyway, here's my score so far:

I'm with Ferg; I was a lot better at this one when I was younger. It was one of my favorites until I got a copy of Defender II/Stargate, then I played that more.

I'm not a big fan of most Defender style games and the flickering seems to bother me more today than when I was a kid, but I did want to take part in the Challenge, so here's my sole submission:
