Xevious 8-2-83

This version appears to be about 60% complete. The gameplay is mostly there, but some of the enemies and sounds are missing. The graphics for the enemies are completely different than in the final version.

Differences

There are only four types of enemies (Toroid Fleet Ships, Mirrors, Black Balls, and Rovers)

There is no option to change the scrolling speed

The enemy graphics are very different. The tanks in particular look like lower case L's for some reason

There are no ground targets other than tanks. Some ground targets can be made to appear using the Transmit Empty Pages option in some emulators, but they appear to be unfinished

The rovers do not fire

There are fewer areas (the final version has sixteen)

There are no game options

The game is one player only

There are no difficulty levels

There is no logo on start up

The scrolling background is different

There is no music

It's attack of the lowercase n's!

Who put a freeway in the middle of my game?

At least the tanks explode properly.

Look at all those enemies! And not an ounce of flicker.
