Is the music a cover of an other platform's music (Atari ST, Amiga?)

Who painted the loading picture?

In the highscore list are three names Ching (probably Ching M. Wong), Glyn and Joey, who are they and what did they do?

well starglider.. the original was made by Jez San on amiga or ST, although I'm guessing Amiga.

the company behind it was argonaut software, you would know that company for games like "starfox" on the snes.

the company was based locally to me (London, UK), in Edgware and System 3 was also local in Harrow.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jez_San

Coder: C.M. Wong
Musician: Nigel Grieve

there was an interview with Jez San in a retro gamer mag I have. I'll post more info if I find it..

i don't know who is/were .. shown on the title screen

Ahh I remember working on those old offices in Colindale, the floors used to bounce when walking along the upper floor. :)
