Release and Legacy
The game was released for the BBC Micro as a follow-up to the platform game Felix in the Factory in 1983. It was also ported to the Acorn Electron as one of Micro Power's launch titles for that machine (along with the first Felix game), also in 1983. Unlike the original game, it was not released on floppy disk for the BBC (as a stand alone release) or converted to any other systems.
The game was later included on the Micro Power Magic 2 compilation (BBC and Electron) and the PRES Games Disc 2 (Electron).
A third Felix game was released in 1984, Felix Meets the Evil Weevils, but this reverts to being a factory-set platform game, not continuing any themes from this game.
