+x=usr(1536) Posted October 23, 2019 Share Posted October 23, 2019 For some reason, I appear to be completely unable to remember the name of a game I had on my Odyssey2. Been looking through videos and screenshots with no success, either. It was a 2-player space combat game set in an asteroid field. Each player controlled a ship, one or both of which resembled the player's ship in Galaga. The objective was to shoot down the other player while not getting shot down yourself or colliding with the asteroids. The centre section of the ship had an animated pulse effect to it. It's not Satellite Attack / U.F.O.!, but gameplay is not totally dissimilar. This was a North American release. Any ideas? I'm coming up completely blank on this one. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flojomojo Posted October 23, 2019 Share Posted October 23, 2019 I enjoyed that as a two player game, at age 11 or so. Bleep bloop. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimj Posted November 7, 2019 Share Posted November 7, 2019 I'm not sure I've ever played this and I didn't realize (or forgot) this was a two player game, I'll have to give it a try. After several decades I still enjoy beating my brother in Odyssey games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pjedavison Posted November 13, 2019 Share Posted November 13, 2019 This was also known as Laser War in Europe (Videopac 18), though it still said "INVADERS" at the bottom of the game screen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimj Posted September 28, 2020 Share Posted September 28, 2020 Finally got a chance to play this today. I like the graphics, even the ships had an animation in the middle. Since the score stops at 10 it looks like this one really only works as a two player game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
