Reception
Video Games Player magazine, in the August/September 1983 issue, called Stargunner "a better than average outer space shoot-'em-up game."[2]
gollark: I would use OC much more if there was less microcrafting and the assembler didn't have that stupid delay.
gollark: It would be ***very*** nice if the plethora method reference didn't list functions as returning "table" and leave you to figure out what interfaces or whatever they support on your own.
gollark: Updated the network security page a bit.
gollark: A table.
gollark: It's necessary and removing it would make rednet not rednet as much as "slightly packeted modem".
