Plus Features

Switchblade is one of the rare PLUS Cartridge game to remain in Mode1 (perhaps the only one indeed).

Yet the PLUS extra features were quite decently inplemented.

• Addition of Raster colour changes for the sky (see pictures) to get a sweet Red gradiant.

• Hardwired sprites used to just add extra colours as background tiles.
