A Horizontal shoot-em-up game...
My colleague is looking for a game way back from the 8 bit era, (definitely not an Amiga game as he never had any Miggies) where he had to fly with an airplane over a river ( or sea, or ocean) and from time to time he had to land on ships to refuel, toherwise ran out of fuel and crash...
I have some faded memories regardin an arcade game like this one, but also can't recall it's name... Any ideas? |

Harrier Attack by Durell Software?
Edit: from Wikipedia - "The player controls a Sea Harrier fighter, looking sideways onto a right-to-left scrolling seascape and landscape. The aim of the game is to take off from a carrier, attack ships and land targets, avoid the odd missile and enemy fighter, then land back on the carrier again" Last edited by Simmo76; 18 April 2014 at 10:21.

I'd say it's the famous Wings of Fury, dunno on which platforms it was released though, but wasn't it quite widespread?
