It runs OK on a 5-meg Mac II with a 512k RAM cache.  Perhaps it's simply
running on the ragged edge of available-memory on your Mac Plus, and is
running out (and bombing ungracefully) after planet #1 if your cache is
using any substantial amount of memory.

Check out some of the higher-numbered planets (either by getting to them
in the game, or with the galaxy editor).  Buckaroo Banzai and Arthur
Dent would be proud ;-}
