First to correctly identify this game wins $10US into their pay-pal account!!

I used to play this game in the late 80's or maybe early 90's

this is what i can remember about it:

at the start there was an opening screen where you could choose a planet (stage) to play - in the beginning you could choose one of two planets ( a red one (?harder) or a sort of white coloured one - ?easier) - the others got unlocked as you progressed.

It was a horizontal scroller - i think you were a man in a space suit that boosted around the screen with a blaster.
 
I could be way off base here....i only had a nonworking one

Mad planets???

Let's try this.. Where did you play it? Was it in an arcade, pizza shop, tell us more. Was it a 1 or 2 player? The name of the shop or arcade might help us target a timeframe.

What kinds of sounds did it have? Do you remember what was on the marquee?

There were a ton of space games, you've gotta give us a little more.
 
I would say Planet of the robot monsters, sounds pretty close. 1989.

It's not Solar Jetman is it? Obviously, I didn't refresh my screen before I posted. LOL.
 
I'm guessing this is it. How you remembered the name of this game and even how to spell it is beyond me. :)

Had to look look it up. I couldn't remember the name of it if you told it to me 2 minutes ago. My first guess into the database was Xeen D'Slain.
