The Last UFO - Amstrad CPC Game Concepts

I have always been a big fan of the game "The Covenant" for the Amstrad CPC.

Besides the unfortunate design flaw/conversion from the ZX Spectrum where you can't complete the game, its a very enjoyable game nonetheless :) 






The Last UFO concept above shows some early ideas. 
Potentially this would be not only for the 64k machine but will enhance for other CPC/Amstrad machines later.
