The game received a sequel later that same year called ''Spectar'' that has similar gameplay, but the graphics are slightly improved and there are changes to the gameplay like barriers and stars to pick up.

!!This game provides examples of:
* AntagonistTitle: The Targs from the title are the in-game enemies. You play as the Wummel instead.
* ExcusePlot: The game's plot only consists of one sentence, setting up the location (Crystal City), player character (Wummel), and enemies (Spectar Smugglers and Targs). It's only there to provide information about the necessary stuff used for gameplay.
* RedGreenContrast: The Wummel (playable vehicle) is green, while the Targs (enemies) are red.
* ScoringPoints: You earn 10*level points upon shooting a Targ, 100-500 points for shooting a siren when it pops up, and 1000*level points for completing it.
* StalkedByTheBell: Not finishing a level quickly enough makes the Targs move much faster.
* VideoGameLives: You start with three lives and lose one when you get hit by a Targ.
