Hello friends and enthusiasts!
I'm looking for a DOS game from 85-90 or at least I think it must be about that.
It is a space shooter, with graphics similar to AstroFire or sturdust, just a bit simpler, there were rounds with increasing difficulty. The only thing I remember being different you could press "H" for hyperspace and this way retreat and you had to press it at the end of the level to finish.
You had a shield at your disposal, which created a bubble around your ship when the button was pressed, made it indestructible.
Another button made you "jump" randomly to another place in the screen
I think the levels vere numbered 1-1, 1-2, 1-3, Etc...
The game was very simple, but was one of the first I've ever played, hence the kind and very vague memories. Thank you for your time

I had, but I checked again and guess what...
I Hadnt checked the games for win 3.x.... but obviously they would have run at my win95 comp at the time.
The name of the game is Comet Busters, thanks a lot!

Aha! I mixed two games together. The second one I'm actually looking for had hyperspace for ending the mission, but that's all I can recall actually, Comet busters substracted i don't even know if it was asteroid-like or a scroller or what. Just the ship. Oh well, maybe the memories will come back one day.
