6In which I play 8 games of "Astro Chase", published by First Star Software in 1982. The presentation of the game is very good, but it's quite difficult to play. Or I found it so, anyway. The control scheme is set up such that your ship will continue to move in whatever direction you last pushed the stick, and then you have to hold down the fire button and push the stick in the direction you want to shoot. It's not an unreasonable setup, but it's counter-intuitive, compared with almost every game of the time, or since.
