Horizonal shoot `em up with tiny graphics and impossible gameplay.

This routine uses the Speedlock III hacker for infinite lives.

Some things you should know about. Yes, this hack works. Like all the hacks I have reproduced so far, I test all of them with a tzx tape image of the original game cassette under X128 emulator. You'll get some blocky squares appear after the bytes for the Speedlock 3 code have initialized. After that, you also won't hear the Speedlock decryption beeps if your running this hack under the Amiga port of X128 (which I don't know why), so you may be mistaken that this hack is not working, but be patient because it does work...
