Okay, plenty of guesses already -- so let's zoom out a bit.

Nope. Perhaps this is proving harder than I thought! Though admittedly, I anticipated at least some of the above guesses. I guess there were a lot of yellow games on the Spectrum.

Nope. Okay, let's zoom out some more... getting very close to giving it away completely, I'd say.

I do believe that game's Official Colour was green, so no. ;)

I think I did a Kane one here some time ago but from the shoot out level.

Anyway...

Nope. Admittedly this is a pretty trivial detail in this game.

Here is a tiny zoom out. If this doesn't get it solved, the next will I reckon.
