Line of Fire is a Sega X Board light gun game released in 1989.

The game was ported to several home computers in Europe by U.S. Gold, but never to a Sega home console. A retooled version with vastly different gameplay was released for the Sega Master System.

Production Credits

Amiga version

The production credits are found in a rant located in the file s/startup-sequence, which explains that Sega would not allow them to put their names in the game.

  • Programming: Richard Aplin
  • Music: Uncle Art
  • Graphics:
    • extracting bitmaps from the original arcade game's video output: Andy Heike, Nick Vincent
    • extracting sprites from the original arcade game ROM: Richard Aplin
    • color reduction for the Amiga: Andy Heike, Nick Vincent, "and some students in Manchester"
  • PCM sample extraction: Richard Aplin
  • Copy protection: Tiertex
  • Management: Steve Fitton (US Gold), Tony Porter (US Gold)

Atari ST version

The rant mentioned above notes that Richard Aplin is also the programmer for that version, but unlike most Sega Amiga ports, this version was developed later.
