Mediocre shoot 'em up, with a dash of strategy for extra interest.

There's two versions of Starion, and no easy way of telling them apart, so to be on the safe side, here's two loaders in one. First type it in without line 110 and try it. If your version crashes then replace line 100 with lines 110 - the universe is yours.

Something which Your Sinclair fail to mention: Don't play your Starion cassette from the beginning! You need to fast forward your game cassette to just before the largest headerless block on the game cassette then press play on the cassette recorder. The loading screen should then begin to load in along with the rest of the game.
