2088 is a video game in the action genre and published by Zeppelin Games Limited originally released in 1988. It is currently playable on ZX Spectrum, Amstrad CPC.
2088 is a video game released in 1988 for the ZX Spectrum, developed and published by Imagine Software. The game is based on the classic arcade game of the same name, and is one of the earliest examples of a home computer-based conversion.
The game itself is a part shoot-em-up, part arcade platformer hybrid. Players take control of a spaceship and must navigate their way through a number of levels, avoiding obstacles and enemies as they go. It features a variety of weapons, including a laser, bombs and missiles, and a number of power-ups which can be collected throughout the game.
The game was well received upon its release, and has since become something of a cult classic. The graphics were praised for their detail and fluidity, and the sound effects and music were deemed to be the best ever heard in a Spectrum game at the time. The game also featured a two-player mode, allowing for some intense co-operative action.
2088 is often cited as one of the best games available for the ZX Spectrum, and is still highly sought after by collectors today. It is a testament to the power of the Spectrum, and to the vision of Imagine Software, that a game of such quality and depth could be created on the platform. It is a classic of the 8-bit era, and will no doubt continue to be fondly remembered for many years to come.
