Sounds like the title corresponds with the gameplay perfectly

Unfortunately I don't know this game :\

It's a ROM by Nippon Dexter in 1987...

Unearthing this topic...

Strange Loop is originally a ZX Spectrum game by Virgin Games. Probably converted to MSX by Nippon Dexter.

What I discovered so far...

Press Space to shoot. Press arrows to move. You can shoot diagonally or horizontally. You may find a floating scooter to make your life easy. When you die, you can respawn anywhere on the screen at your own will. Kill all boss girls. You'll get their weapons.

There are objetcs scattered around. I am currently trying to discover their functions:

GRAPH key - Select item to be used.

Scooter - Deactivates your scooter. You'll proceed on foot.
Joy Circuit - Can be used in a green robot. It will give you a BVPA card (?)

Yes, I am determined to win this game. I just do not know why. :)

P.S.: If you do not know the game, send an e-mail to leandro "at" leandrocorreia "dot" com. I can send you... uhhh... more information.

P.P.S.: If you have its manual, send it to me. :)

I always have thought that Strangeloop is originally from States. So speccy was not the original version. Or then I have always been wrong.
