Reviewer: Dos-Games-Online This is a weird game. You have a spaceship, and your movement is grid-locked. The view is very shifty and rapid. Also there are separate focuses on moving and shooting, you choose movement and shooting directions separately. This is the most awkward mind-boggling controls I ever saw in a game! To win this game, your reflexes may need to be better than a cat's.
I doubt you would enjoy this game, not worth a download unless you have the patience to adapt to possibly the worst game controls in history.

This is an amazing game! It's very simple, but the sheer speed gives you a massive adrenaline rush. I only ever shoot in 2 directions personally - it's just a bit easier to get your head around, and it doesn't hurt your score.

This was one of my favourite games in the 90's. Glad it still works under DosBox. Will be hooking it up to the TV and stereo tonight for some schitzophrenic asteroid blasting.

I personaly find this the best and most addictive single player freeware game I ever played its all so fast that its a bit hard at first, but if you get used to it, ANYTHING is possible due to the speed! you can make the greatest dodges you´ve ever seen and have a bigger adrenaline rush then most FPS shooters ever will...
my highscore now is 1,034,254
the old version used to crash above 1,000,000... lol
used to have an even higher highscore back in the old days on my old pc...
btw, under XP, download the latest dosbox (http://dosbox.sourceforge.net), install and start it, type:
mount c c:gamesquadnet (or whatever your quadnet dir is)
c:
quadnet
The game should start now, and you should hit ctrl+F12 for about 15 times or so becouse the game and sound will run a bit slow if you dont.
Finaly, hit alt+enter for fullscreen and get ready to play.

without meaning to be judgemental, the reviewer of this game is an idiot. the controls are completely customisable, but even the default controls are easy. four keys control your movement, up down left right, four keys control your gun, shoot up, down, left, right. its not exactly a difficult concept. this is an excellent simple shooter with excellent sound, impressive lo-res visuals, and extremely addictive. dont listen to that mong, download it now :D
