v1.0.1.1
Loved a similar game I once played as a kid at a friend's in the late 1980ies / early 1990ies, but this game's UI/UX is so bad, that it's overall disappointing. Just some ugly generic Win95 styled UI overlay, no in game menu aesthetic. Rating 2/5.

Holy shit: I just had that melancholic feeling due to memorizing a short moment of my youth ... and reminding me about how old I am. =) Thanks. I hope I will find the time to play this.
