Reception

In Japan, Game Machine listed Gyrodine on their August 1, 1984 issue as being the ninth most-successful table arcade unit of the year.[1]

gollark: There is no overkill.
gollark: I found a random 128*M*B USB stick lying around just now.
gollark: `chmod -R 777 [folder]`
gollark: Yes, it would do that.
gollark: Also, generally with the fingerprints it shouldn't be possible to reverse them into keys *anyway*.
