Trivia

Controls

The keyboard controls allow you to fire in all four directions, while the joystick lets you fire in the direction you're traveling. This means that the keyboard controls are actually more effective for playing the game than the joystick.

Graphics

The Composite-mode colors of the PC version are identical to the Apple version.

PCjr

Both a PC and a PCjr bootable cartridge version of this game exist. The PCjr cartridge version is differently colored.

Remake

There is a Windows remake of the game, created for the Retro Remakes competition 2006, with the title Gridfire.
