Dunno why they didn't just call it Twister. Zub (aka Zob) was also renamed of course, I wonder how many other games were besides those already mentioned?

Anyways, heres the next SCREEN$

To Dare is to do as they say at Tottenham Hotspur

And just like Spurs, you haven't won anything with this guess

With that said, both yourself and oluturia are in the ballpark, but for different reasons...

Yes indeed, Perry/Bruty is the link between Dan Dare and TMHT. And Metabolis is about human/animal transformations so there's a link there too.

That's it. A unique sprite from Under The Megatree. I got there without loosing a life to take the screenshot. Not done that for 20 years.
