Plan B 2 - Fandal and Miker have released a new(ish) game for the Atari XL/XE!

The A8 retro games just keep on coming throughout the weekend, as thanks to another heads up earlier today from our good friend Saberman, he has told us that Fandal and Miker have released a new(ish) game for the Atari XL/XE called Plan B 2. An Atari 8bit conversion from the BBC Micro which was originally released back in 1987 by Paul Brittan and Andrew Foord as Pan B. To coincide with this news, Saberman has also done a video showing this BBC Micro to Atari XL/XE port in action!

Here is what is described about the game from another video done of the BBC MICRO version. "Plan A, to bomb the rogue central computer has failed. The next step is Plan B... You control a war drone teleported inside the computer complex and must find and destroy all the computer parts and then escape, while constantly fighting off the security robots". 

"Extra rockets can be picked up and oil cans and spanners will replenish your energy, but be careful not to shoot these before picking them up. Some parts of the scenery can be shot to allow passage, to destroy computer parts or gain access to items, although it may not be immediately obvious which sections can be destroyed. Ten keys need to be found to open the front door in addition to other keys which can be used to gain access to the other areas".
