Alloyrun
Description
Alloyrun is a 2D side-scrolling shooter in which the player controls a futuristic ship and has to shoot enemies as they approach from the right, in order to gain points. The ships is always facing the same direction, meaning it can only shoot to the right, but it can be freely moved around the screen. There are also hazards and barriers in the environment that needed to be avoided. The game keeps track of the highscore.

Trivia
Rediscovery
The game was initially unreleased due to the publisher Starlight Software folding. Planned for a 1987 release the publishers were not able to pay the developers. Later, in 2016, a playable build of the game was found whilst digitally preserving the work disks of one of the developers, Ashley Routledge. This build of the game was published on the games preservation website Games That Weren't.
