The game was released on the Acorn Electron, BBC Micro, Commodore 16, Commodore Plus/4, Commodore 64, Amstrad CPC and ZX Spectrum ranges of computers.Tomcat was released as a budget title and was also featured on a Your Sinclair magazine cover tape.

Description

Tomcat is a vertically scrolling shoot 'em up in which the player takes control of an F14 Tomcat fighter aircraft, shooting at both air and ground targets whilst flying over four levels.

The game is set in the future, some time after the first half of the 21st century. In the in-game universe, materials science has progressed such that human civilisation has found a way to cheaply build many artificial islands. The game is set on one such island, called ARTROCK 6 which is a completely automated defence installation. Due to a freak storm damaging the controlling software, the island has turned against its own side and has started attacking local shipping. The player's task is to fly in and completely destroy the rogue island.

List of Tugs episodes

This is a list of the thirteen episodes of the British children's television series Tugs, which first broadcast in 1988 and 1989.

List of episodes

Series 1

These episode plots are from the back covers of the VHS releases.

Series 2

A second series had already been planned well in advance of the shooting of the first. Already over 96 scripts had been written by Mitton himself and other writers with a regular 13 episodes to be produced. Most of the series would have been set more "up river" instead of the Bigg City docks area due to difficulty shooting in that area. Besides the regular main cast, some new tugs would have been introduced. However, Television South (TVS), which was in charge of producing the series, was in bankruptcy at the time, which prevented the series from being produced.
