Time Runner

Released by Funsoft as Time Runner in North America and by WizardSoft as Blade Runner in Italy, this Amidar style action game was created by Scott Maxwell & Troy Lyndon. Time Runner is a game in which you move your character along a pellet grid, which changes from level to level, while you collect points and avoid enemy characters. The goal is to, similar to PacMan, cover the entire board and fill-in each rectangular area, which will then become colored in. Time Runner was first developed on the Atari 800 and later converted to the Commodore-64.Chicken

Dishaster

Dishaster is an action game released for the Atari 2600 in 1983 by Zimag. Another version of the game was released by Bit Corporation under the name Dancing Plates which features oriental-themed graphics and adds eight game variations. Dishaster was inspired by the circus tradition of keeping spinning plates suspended on poles. The player controls a girl attempting to keep a group of several spinning plates balanced on poles from falling. The game received negative reviews; criticism focused on the game's repetition and monotony. The girl can stabilize wobbling dishes by pressing the button on the controller. If a plate falls, the player is able to capture it if the girl touches it before it hits the ground, and a new one appears at the top of the pole. The number of poles to spin varies between the selected skill level; there are six on the easiest setting, and ten on the hardest. The player loses if they let four dishes hit the ground
