I've updated the archive to include the beta version (in a disk image) and some other variations I found, and added some accurate screenshots. Pics of the game's packaging are in the archive.

I've added a beta version that I found on a recent conquest. The title screen text is different and there's no filled/vector option button (you can only play vector). Also there's no mention of Velocity in this beta, just Peninsula Gameworks.

Got the whole package and disk from eBay, so I've scanned and imaged everything and uploaded all, incorporating the original archive into the new one.
