Your stellar cruiser begins to shudder as the hyperwarp drive suddenly cuts out. Slowing down, you realize you've entered an asteroids field. A BIG asteroid field. You bolt for the high-density laser-pulse inverter. Your only chance is to blast your way out. And you better start now...
Originally planned for December 1983 release on cancelled "Power Play Arcade" 3-in-1 cartridge. Eventually released as limited edition standalone cartridge under the Video Soft label in 2010.
It's shoot-out time and you've got to be faster than your opponent or the computer. Move, dodge, or hide behind a covered wagon or cactus. But whatever you do, don't waste your time because your opponent is shooting back. Take your position, aim, and fire before he gets you...
Gunfight is the first release from Manuel Rotschkar and is heavily inspired by the 1975 Midway arcade game Gun Fight. Gunfight features eight-way movement with the following gameplay modes:
Standard Duel: The first player to score 7 points wins
Sixshooter Duel: The first player to score 7 points wins
Escape Scenario: The left player wins when scoring _once_! The right player wins when surviving 99 time units.
Target Shooting: The first player to score 77 points wins. Hitting a target scores 1 point. Hitting the opponent scores 5 points.
In Exocet, you first pilot a spacecraft over the surface, shooting the defense towers in your path. The larger towers are too large to fly around, and they must be hit at the point where they fire. When you have traveled a particular distance, you will find an opening to the underground passage. There you continue to destroy the various things flying around.
Also sold under the name "Cruise Missile" by Froggo Games.
A simple flight simulator and dogfighting game. Shoot the planes, avoid the flak. You have a limited amount of ammuntion and fuel. Shoot down 10 planes and you can land to refuel, but you may lose ammo. You'll only be given as much ammunition as you successfully used to shoot down planes the last time up.
Bugs are crawling out of the sewers and are coming for you. Your defense: a bunch of potted plants hanging over your balcony. As the bugs climb the wall, push the pots over the edge and knock the bugs off. If six bugs get into your building through the window, they'll eat away at the foundation until the building drops a bit. Then the bugs will have a shorter wall to climb, and things get harder. This game is original, challenging, and pretty addictive. Get 75,000 points and earn the Crackpots patch.
This game has you placed in a spacecraft of some kind (the cover art makes it look like a futuristic passenger jetliner with weapons attached, but I don't know honestly!) flying through what looks like a cave, while taking on several enemies that attack you from the right side of the screen. After surviving a few rounds, you'll go into an 'underground' cave where you fly through a treacherous corridor and attempt to dock with a refueling station (I'd guess.) After that, it's back to blasting targets again. Lather, rinse, repeat.
You are having dinner when a horde of animals (mostly) insects arrive and want to steal your food. Your only weapon is insecticide liquid which you can spray in two directions (up and down). This game is a rip-off of Atari 2600 game "Plaque Attack" where you are defending your teeth against food with toothpaste.
The game has four scenes: fighting ships at day, fighting ships by night, fighting planes and ships by day, fighting planes and ships by night. You move left or right and press the button to fire. In the night scenes, you cannot see the ships or planes in the distance unless something explodes.
As one of the Xonox "Double Ender" cartridges, this features Robin Hood and Sir Lancelot. Each of the two games was released separately, though it's generally more common to find them in this form. This particular double-ender is the most common to feature either of these games.
The Double-Ender is two games in one - each end of the cartridge has a different game. These cartridges are about 2.5 inches longer than a standard cartridge, and the case is wider in the middle. There is one long label that is typically blue, with game art for both sides split diagonally down the middle. Titles are printed in red text against a yellow banner. All the titles found on the Double-Enders can also be found in standard single-ended cases.
Xonox, based in Minnesota, started developing Atari cartridges during the height of the 2600's popularity. They contributed many high quality games available for the early platforms. Xonox capitalized on the novelty and perceived value of "double-ender" cartridges. These could be inserted into
River Raid II continues the fast-paced shooting action of the 1982 original while adding new features such as varying altitude (the original only featured left and right movement), flying over oceans and firing torpedoes. Now instead of shooting enemy helicopters and planes, you'll also get to bomb destroyers, tanks, buildings, landing strips and water towers in your mission to destroy the enemy bridge.
With this cartridge you become the captain of a space cruiser that combats enemy spaceships and docks at a space station. The program can be played alone or with one opponent.
A murder mystery shooter where the player uses the gun (mounted to the cabinet) to protect Max from a variety of attacks as well as give him directions.
An Ultraman vertically scrolling shooter where you have to fight strange looking monsters.
You play as one of the Defense Teams, defending the Earth from various Kaiju and aliens. At certain points, you can summon an Ultra Warrior to help you in this top down shooter.
