The Flight of The Phoenix was written back in 2000 by Richard Bayliss when he was learning from Commodore Zone’s Hex files.
The game was generally a static screen shoot ’em up, with over simplistic attack waves. You controlled a spaceship and you had to blast aliens that wrapped around the screen. It was about a 5 minutes of fun game and that was it.
In the end the game was not completed or released as Richard felt that it may annoy the creator of the Hex Files, as he copied the same style of enemy movements. "Not a good move" – Richard added.
Sadly it seems this little game has been lost, so unfortunatly this is one that got away from preservation.
Case closed…
