The game was released for all major platforms at the time and developed by De Re Software (Atari 8-bit), Exasoft (BBC Micro), Sculptured Software (Commodore 64) and Walking Circles (Amstrad CPC/PCW, MSX, ZX Spectrum) from a design by Richard Naylor of Domark.[2]

Legacy

The game was re-released as a light gun shooter on various cassette tapes with the ZX Spectrum 007 Action Pack. The plot was greatly rewritten, and explained on narration audiocassettes by Desmond Llewelyn as Q.[3]
