Uridium Uridium is a sci-fi side-scrolling shoot 'em up for the Commodore 64 (and other 8-bit machines). It consists of fifteen levels, each named after a metal element, with the last level being called Uridium (a fictional metallic element, not to be confused with the real metallic element iridium). The manual quotes Robert Orchard, who "invented" the name: "I really thought it existed." [source:wikipedia]
