Looking for a rare game I remember, can you help?
I remember walking through the Arndale centre in Manchester in late 80s and heard music coming from game shop (forgot name). I thought it was a tv music video but it was a game! Would love to see it again, I bought it but long gone now.
It's a regular bat and ball game (like breakout/arkanoid) Think it's Amiga but could be Atari ST Had static picture in game with music singing on it Any ideas? |

If not Detonator, then Demolition is the other early Breakout clone that featured sampled music.
