  • Export saves: export the savegame files from your browser, so you can switch to another browser or computer. You can also use them in an emulator installed on your computer.
  • Import saves: import savegames that you exported before with the Export saves button.
  • Download disk: export the whole game from your browser, with all your savegames. Useful to switch to an emulator installed on your computer.

Import saves?

The saves in the zip file replace your saves that have the same name. If the game runs, it starts again.
Reset game files?

This puts back all the files that the game came with, also the files that you deleted or changed. Files that the game made, such as saves, stay. If the game keeps a save in one of its own files, that save is lost. If the game runs, it starts again.
Delete your saves?

This deletes all your saves and all your changes to this game. You cannot undo this. To keep a copy, export your saves first. If the game runs, it starts again.

As Chromy points out In his comment, this version does run too fast. That said, we gamers can catch-up with plenty of practice! I remember playing this game In the Arcades during the early/mid 1980's. There were two versions - one had the screen at waist or chest level (depending on your age and height!) whilst the other had an eye-level view with a "submarine periscope" viewer. Both had green-on-black screens and were based on vector graphics with lots of squares, rectangles, pyramids and other polygons. I'd love to have the periscope-type at home right now! Bear In mind that the Arcade versions are far superior to any others. Don't be put off by these poor home micro & other early game console versions - this Is a really good game. Suggestion - learn on this and then go and destroy the arcade version!
