Universal Cosmic series games:

- Space Panic, Cosmic Alien and Magical Spot

Two more games to be added at a later stage and bound to be some problems (as well as the ones I already know about :mrgreen: )
- coin settings for Magical Spot are wrong
- CPU clock for some games is too fast (but game should be correct speed since it is tied to screen flyback)
Did I do something useful?
