Sinclair Spectrum Graphics

Night Raider was the conversion of an Atari ST game to the Spectrum - a World War II 'action simulation' that saw the player flying a Grumman Avenger out to sea to sink the notorious Bismark. 

My role on the project was simply that of creating the sprites and a number of control panel and cockpit display screens for the Spectrum. This was achieved by studying the intricate full-screen 16-colour original graphics of the Atari version and converting them to a tiny black and white character set that just managed to fit into the Spectrum's minuscule memory space.
