what is wrong with my astroblast

It's easy to stay alive but it's hard to get the score to increase! LOL SCreen turns blue, screen turns black, screen turns blue, screen turns black, screen turns blue, screen turns black

Actually, nothing's wrong with your cart. You gain points everytime you shoot something, but you lose points everytime something hits the ground. The screen changes color when you reach certain scores, but if your score decreases because of targets hitting the ground, it'll switch back to the previous color. Nice thing is, when the game's over, it displays your "peak" score, the highest number of points you achieved at any point in the game.

You might check out the game manual. It clarifies everything better than my clumsy explanation.

Now, what I would like to know is: What's wrong with my Alien cartridge? It keeps playing a game that's trying to rip off Pac-Man!
