Description
In the far-off future of 1987, surplus electronics have become the Colorbots, a robot race bent on destroying mankind. Three of them chase you round a field of flashing high-voltage walls that kill robots and men alike, so lead them into the walls or knock them out with your stolen Electron Frisbees. Each is worth ten points and is replaced elsewhere, faster each time, and any small Colorbots dropped behind them are fatal to walk on.
Controls: The stick moves in eight directions; hold fire and push to throw a frisbee.
