The One
Flying Shark on the ST features detailed and colourful backdrops and sprites accompanied by functional effects and music. What we have here is a fairly accurate interpretation of a derivative but playable coin-op which drops on US Gold's conversion of 1943 from a few thousand feet.

So - to buy or not to buy? If you were crazy about the coin-op then definitely yes. This is a more than competent conversion. If, however, you are just looking for a good scrolling shoot 'em up for your ST then I would consider Xenon by Melbourne House instead. It has the edge in playability and graphics.
