Any one have any screen shot or video of this game, I have trawled through YouTube but never found anything for it. Came out on the Acorn Archimedes in 1991 and was going to be a space trading game in the Elite mould but only the flight training part of the game was release.

Hmmm tried searching myself with the info you have given looks like this one is simply lost because of time.... this is why games should be released free if they are abandoned just so they don't become lost to time.

Always been surprised that their is very little about Archimedes games in general although it was never as popular as the Amiga or Atari ST.

The system did have a number a exclusive space related games released on it and the best know ones would be Elite and Starfighter 3000, the other ones are about as hard to track down as Karma.

Fascinating vid from Retro Man Cave talking to the dev of the game and what happened, sounds like they did have a Elite killer, but rather frustratingly no game play footage of the game. Hopefully their will be a follow up to this vid.
