Very nice. I prefer the stark simplicity of the Activision graphics, but these are good and similar to the other versions out there. Plays nicely too.

Ah, the Activision game... I love it! (and I should play this sequel!)

I've still never got the chance to use my own H.E.R.O. sprite/idea.

I never cease to be amazed what an accomplished pixel artist can magic up from the horrendous Spectrum constraints.
