It was called Deflector.

It came with one of the C64 mags. Either Zzap64 or Commodore Format.

Any chance any was has it?

Never heard of it. Do you want to have a physical copy or just want to play it? If you just want to play it, i'm sure you could find it on google and play with an emulator

A rom would do but I have never had any joy getting one.
The game was a freebie so I'de guess its quite rare.

Well your first port of call should be http://www.commodoreformat.co.uk/ and http://www.zzap64.co.uk/ I think they may even have there cover tapes online as images. I'll have a look at some c64 sites later to see if I can find it.

Sorry for the hijack here guys, but it will save 3 whats this game threads!

Im trying to ID a sidescroller/shooter for the C64.
One level i remember, youre in a jungle environmnet i think, with maybe a bridge or waterfall or something, it was in daylight, and i think it was colourful.

Anyway, i remember getting to the end of a level

and you go up a pyramid, grey in colour i believe.

And a pharoahs head tries to kill you, something like this except in 8 bit graphics:

Its sorta floating around in the air lol, i never managed to kill the ****er either!

Can anyone tell me what it is? thats the best i can do im afraid.

The game really stood out from anything else i played.

Afraid not on both, although it could be a clone of Chelnov/atomic runner.
Could not find a c64 realse on lemon, arnold, or c64.com.

Sorta has the same vibe in this level:
