Atari game in National Lampoon's Vacation

[h.e.r.o]

Maybe I'm just dumb, but is there any game like the one where Chevy Chase puts the station wagon in the game and Russ keeps shooting the car?

 

They must have programmed SOMETHING. How did they do that, anyways?

Since I couldn't see anyone actually credited for programming a computer-animated sequence for that shot, it was probably just animated outright (which would be cheaper anyway), with both systems just visual props.

click here for the only known info I can find. Although that scene in the movie may have just been computer animation. I'm not sure, but I think the pac-man style character is KC munchkin, but I'm sure someone like tempest will prove me wrong.
