Attention span: 2/10 20 minutes in study hall
Controls: 10/10 Arrows
Implementation: 8/10 It has tons of features, but I think that is the problem.
Overall: 3/10 Size does matter

In all honesty, I really dislike this game. I guess I am prejudiced against it because of its rather large size. Although it is essentially a side scrolling "Fast Tunnel" with mines, this game is over 3KB! The original Fast Tunnel was less than 500 bytes if I remember correctly. For your extra 2.5KB, you get a speed changer, a cool title screen, a cool intro screen, and mines. I don't think the size is worth it on an 82. If it was for the 86, I would probably keep it on my calc.

”7G” is an extremely fast paced game! The graphics are wonderful, and work perfectly with this type of game. Most of “7G” is comprised of dodging the cave walls with a jet. There are many different difficulty levels, so the game never gets "too easy" or "too hard". With each difficulty level, there are new obstacles. For example, in the hardest difficulty level there are mines that you have to dodge. Unfortunately, there are some issues this game has: 1) It is too fast to see the mines, 2) Dodging the mines is almost impossible because of the speed, and 3) The cave walls, however, are easily dodged. In other words, if you love fast paced games that force you to act quickly, then you will like this game, but if you’re like me, then you'll find this game kind of boring at times. Anyway, have fun!
