From A.N.A.L.O.G. magazine issue 10. |
| I remember keying this in to play from the A.N.A.L.O.G. listing. I also remember you could play a certain way to fill the entire screen, 100%. |
| Fill'er Up! (and the Electric Starfish, small Qix knock-offs) are missing the enemy sparklers that burn like fuses along the walls, making for a dimensionless game which precipitated the creation of "Fill'er Up! II", worthy of letting these older versions get erased. "FU-2" added sparklers, but even "FU-2" still lacks the 2-color 2-speed 2-points draw system which the Arcade and Atari Qix do have. |
| As long as this file is MISSING, an unauthorized duplicate of it was commercially published in Europe under the name "Electric Starfish". It is a short binary file 3275 bytes but originally appeared as a BASIC program containing all machine language DATA statements, with an instructions page slapped on top of it. "Qix" clone. |
| This was a nice little Qix clone. |
