Reception
Although warning that the ST already had "scrolling shoot-em-up" games, David Plotkin of STart in 1987 liked Plutos's graphics and level design, concluding that "this is an entertaining way to work off your aggressions".[3]
gollark: I was looking into having browser-based frontends for remotely hosted "cloud" CC VMs.
gollark: I think PotatOS for x86™ would be more useful. You could always run that in one of the in browser x86 VMs.
gollark: Ah yes, I definitely want to program on emulated computers on my smartphone's 5.5" display?
gollark: Well, it broke eventually, but it *booted* and installed potatOS.
gollark: It worked without setting anything on mine.
