Pete the Plastered Postman and Asteroid Lander

Pete the Plastered Postman and Asteroid Lander are two arcade games released together for the BBC Micro.

• Asteroid Lander: A Lunar Lander variant, where the player tries to position a spacecraft on a small landing pad at the bottom of the screen while gravity pulls the craft downwards. The craft can fire thrusters, and rotate clockwise or counterclockwise, and has limited fuel. There are three difficulty levels which determine the number of obstacles to avoid.

• Pete the Plastered Postman: Pete must deliver parcels to the red rectangle at the top of the screen while avoiding the dog that chases him. After a successful deliver, he must return to the red pillar box at the bottom of the screen to pick up another parcel. Because Pete likes to oblige the whisky bottle, the player's movements are hampered, and the character often moves in the opposite direction or usually just sways in place. The player gains 100 points for each parcel delivered, and loses one point for every bite. Time limit is 10 minutes.
