The NES version is my favorite 8-bits game. Such mind blowing to have 3D graphics on this console. The manual referred to rock hermit, I spent many hours searching for them, without encountering any... I remembered discovering by accident how to escape hyperdrive and be assaulted by Thargoids. What a game!

The game X [3] used a similar technique to draw 3D on tiled backgrounds on the even more limited hardware of the old black and white (green and yellow?) Game Boy.
