The game got 4½ out of 5 stars in Dragon.[1] Computer Gaming World praised the game's "breathtaking graphics", high difficulty, and intelligent opponents, only criticizing the lack of a save game option. The magazine concluded that "Nova 9 is an excellent offering for arcade fans everywhere ... a thoroughly professional effort".[2]
gollark: Not necessarily.
gollark: tape_drive.read(2500) returns a 256-byte string.

gollark: Since I made PotatOS play "magic tapes" with code on them which gets executed, PotatOS has gotten great reviews, such as:"owwwwww","AAAGH MY EARS","horrible screech","I'm wearing headphones!","WOULD YOU STOP","my ears lol"
