First in a series of videos in which I count down my top 85 games for the BBC Micro! Coming in at number 85 is "Meteoroids" from Fontana Publishing, written by Tim Hartnell and Ian Hutt.

In this video I introduce the series and give some background to the game before reviewing it - gameplay and commentary. I also take a moment to reflect on the legacy of the Beeb, the concept of typing in a game from scratch and how this got me into programming back in the 1980s. Enjoy!
