Fusion is a computer game by Bullfrog released in 1989.

It is a multi-directional scrolling shoot 'em up game (with parallax scrolling). The action is viewed from the top. The player controls either a ground-based crawler or a spacecraft. There are thirteen levels.

Development

The game was created by Peter Molyneux and Glenn Corpes, the former doing of most of the programming and design and the latter taking care of graphics and animation.[1] The music was written by David Hanlon.

Reception

A UK magazine gave the ST version a score of 9 out of 10, saying that despite being "yet another vertically scrolling shoot-'em-up" it has "sufficient variation".[2]
