‘Make My Day’ and was another of those Trojan Light Gun games which were being created in the early 90’s as the light phaser games began to get popular. Virgin Mastertronic had already done a series of light gun games, and this was also another title in the series.
The game was to be a side scroller where you shoot gangsters in the street. Essentially it was going to be similar to the already released Ghost-town with different graphics. This means that the game was likely to be created by the same person who did Ghost-Town – Martin Howarth. We will try and ask him more about the game soon.
Thanks to Fabrizio Bartoloni – we learn that a ZX Spectrum version was also cancelled and unreleased too. Written by a Peter Gough, who had done other titles such as Future Games, Ghouls n Ghosts and Gunstar.
More research needed. Sadly we cannot ask Martin Holland more about the game, as he sadly passed away in 2003. Maybe one day his lost graphics will be recovered to preserve the title and his memory once more. Hopefully Martin Howarth will help shed some light some day soon.
More soon we hope!…
