It's a remix of Uridium done using 3D Studio Max and After Effects. I think it's fantastic, a bloody good idea for a remake...

I always found Uridium annoying in that you had to memorise levels perfectly to be able to avoid crashing into things at speed. It would have been nice if it was a bit more forgiving. Great game despite that though.

I don't think 3D does anything for it, it's still a very linear setup with annoying camera changes.

On the GP2x the NES version is pretty good. It's called 'The Last Star Fighter' but is actually Uridium.

I always preferred the Spectrum version to the C64 version. It may not look as nice but it is little bit slower and so easier to play. On the C64 version I find I am always hitting walls and things as it goes so fast.

I think it could improve the gameplay quite a lot. Imagine it it was the same game, but spun round so you were flying into the screen (star wars trench style). Would make it easy to see what was coming, and you could have a nice 'swing round' camera effect for changing direction...
