Your favourite Qix clone?

Choose the original or its sequels if you please. Main purpose of this thread is to find out if there are any obscure variations of the "genre" that I or others may not know about.

My favourite so far is Volfied arcade version. Played the PCE version briefly and seemed quite good. I don't remember playing the Genesis version.

Gals Panic. I forgot which part I liked most though, probably 4 or S.

Something that was missing in all the clones I've tried is the scoring element of the original game; fast lines worth a few points and slow lines worth lots of points.

MAME has an unreleased prototype called Twin Qix that has two-player versus. It's still missing the fast/slow scoring element, but fun with another person.

I thought Qix Neo on the PS1 was a great nab. I'm pretty sure it's a direct conversion of the official Taito arcade game, Volified. Good fun.
