Game Over - Death Stalker

Game Over

Composer David Whittaker Released 1988-1?-?? Title Origin Game Location

Game Over is a dramatic jingle in the 8-bit home computer game Death Stalker.

It plays when you run out of strength, abort the Spectrum game, and after the ending. After a few more seconds, the screen fades out and High Score or Theme plays.

Composition

David Whittaker most likely typed into his driver's source code on an Einstein (a computer with the same CPU and audio chip as below platforms).

The content of this section should be improved.
