Description:
Onions is a mash-up of two of my favourite Vic 20 shooters, I wonder if you can guess which two? These games are an inspiration and Onions is a completely new arcade blaster for our favourite computer. I'll post more over the coming days.

This is being made with Turbo Rascal and using my VBM commands for the bitmap manipulation. VBM would probably not exist with out Denial and the friendly + helpful folks who hang out here.

Cyclons and Omega Race? If your game is going to be as playable as those two it will be great :D

Naming games is not my strong point. :) The players ship kind of resembles one.
