Love this game...Played it hundreds of times! Bit odd playing it via emulator...keys don't feel right somehow! :D

Um..., nah - not my cuppa tea, this. Will be back, but would much prefer another week of JSW2.

It's very double-dragon-y.

Perhaps you're interested in playing Progear then, Misery? We're currently playing it in RGF Shmup League. Unfortunately it's the Retro Gamer Forum league only in name now, everything moved to Facebook group. So if anyone's interested search for it on Facebook.

My score:

128,500

The game controls terribly - as if it didn't register half of my key presses. Is this the emulation issue? I never played it on real Speccy, but I played original Renegade and don't recall any problems with controls.

It's no Streets of Rage, but it's a pretty decent brawler for a Spectrum game. The music doesn't seem to fit the mood at all, though...

The second loop seems like an exercise in pure masochism. But maybe I'm missing some trick.

I'm having similar problems...I thought it was just my keyboard!

Definitely not as responsive as playing it on the Speccy, anyway...especially where that back-kick is concerned!

Had enough. Unresponsive far too often.

Got on a lot better after making "m" the hit key instead of the Space Bar! :)

Ran out of time on the last screen of the 2nd playthrough of Level 1 though :o ......bloody tricky!
