Omega-TI Posted June 16, 2020 Share Posted June 16, 2020 One of my all-time favorite TRS-80 games is shown in the video below. It's a great play, even with it's blocky graphics. I don't know if this was an original concept, or borrowed from an arcade type game of the era. Do any of you recognize a game from another platform that resembles this one? Maybe it's already available on the TI and I've simply overlooked it. One thing is certain, it's fun to play! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Ksarul Posted June 16, 2020 Share Posted June 16, 2020 It almost looks like a weird take on Galaxian. . . 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+OLD CS1 Posted June 16, 2020 Share Posted June 16, 2020 I like that a good number of the TRS-80 games could translate over into the TI's multi-color mode. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jstimson Posted June 16, 2020 Share Posted June 16, 2020 Getting a major "Threshold" vibe. This was a game on the Colecovision. So if it can be done on that, it can be done on the TI (given the same video chip used on both machines). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toucan Posted June 16, 2020 Share Posted June 16, 2020 (edited) I think Astro Fighter by Data East would fit the bill here. There's also a mothership that you battle after a few waves ,where I think you refuel.

HOME AUTOMATION Posted June 16, 2020 Share Posted June 16, 2020 ...But I think, I've seen something else that's even closer! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Omega-TI Posted June 16, 2020 Author Share Posted June 16, 2020 That Lunar Rescue game looks a lot like Meteor Mission II for the TRS-80. That was another fun one to play. Now I feel compelled to remove my KODI SD card out of the RPi in the other room and replace it with the TRS-80 emulator for few minutes. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
