Producer: Blaby Computer Games Memory Required: 48K Retail Price: £1.99 Language: Machine code Author: Chris Morrison The name Hubert disguises a familiar game that in the arcade used a 'Q' instead of a 'H'. 31 squares arranged in alternating rows of four and five, must be changed in colour by jumping Hubert from one to another. On the first, easiest screen, Hubert is not pursued by anything, just to let you yet the hang of the keys, which are user-definable. On the second screen a bubble begins darting about, killing Hubert off if both should land on the same square. On the third it's the same except Hubert must change the colours of the square twice. Jumping off the edge of the playing area results in instant death. Subsequent screens add another nasty up to total of three, each addition alternating with single change and double change colours. COMMENTS Control keys: user-definable Joystick: Kempston, but almost any via UDK Keyboard play: responsive, although it seems the monsters have a move priority over you, which is disadvantageous at times Use of colour: fairly good Graphics: reasonable and fast Sound: nice effects Skill levels: 1 with progressive difficulty Lives: 3
