Psytron

To keep the Betula 5 Installation running smoothly and to protect it, it is
run by one central computer called Psytron which keeps the oxygen levels
stable, allocates food and duties and most importantly it protects the
installation from any saboteurs or attacks. The game allows you to take the
role of Psytron but instead of throwing you into the deep end and overwhelm
the player, you play over five levels which introduces new tasks on each level
to help you get used to the game before you attempt to play level six, The
Final Conflict. You must play each level over five times and your aim is to
get an average score of 50% or more to move on to the next level. The levels
are:

Level One: The alien invaders are beaming down Tri-Pedroids into the airlock
service tunnel which circles the whole base. Their aim is to damage the
airlocks so you control a Pursuit Droid which must move along the tunnel and
destroy any saboteur you encounter over a period of five minutes. Even though
the airlocks get damaged and you can see ships in the sky your only objective
is to blast the saboteurs on this level. A radar on the bottom of the screen
shows the location of any saboteur and your position.

Level Two: You now need to defend the skies above and you control a crosshair
and you must move around the installation to shoot any alien ship that intends
to bomb the installation for five minutes once again. A radar shows the
position of the ships and your position as well as if the alien ship is about
to bomb.

Level Three: This level combines level one and two and you must switch between
game modes to protect the installation from being bombed or the airlocks being
damaged over a period of ten minutes.

Level Four: As well as defending the installation from the skies and the
service tunnel you must now send crews to repair any damaged airlock or
building. To help you, you can use freezetime which slows the game down but
you only have limited use and also fuel which enables freezetime. You have ten
minutes to survive but require an average score of 60%.

Level Five: The last level before The Final Conflict and now you combine
levels one to four as well as having to keep the installation supplies at
their correct levels using freezetime once again. You need to take into
account the weight the supply ship can carry and the length of time it takes
to arrive and unload. Once again you have ten minutes but with an average
score of 65%.

The Final Conflict: You now have full control of Psytron and you must keep
the installation running, deploy crews and defend the base from bombings and
saboteurs. You try to keep the installation running for as long as possible
with the aim being one hour.

There was actually a competition where the best score won you a Q.L. Computer,
with your score combining the score from the Final Conflict and your average
scores from the previous levels.
