Bellum for Atari 8-bit was the first commercially released game by Adam Billyard, who would go on to create Elektra Glide and Q-Ball, and later the RenderWare 3D engine. Originally released through the Atari Program Exchange, this is an interesting Scramble-alike that is worth a look for its unique twist of gravity.

Atari A to Z is a weekly series that gradually works its way through the Atari 8-bit's catalogue of games, one letter at a time. Once we get to Z, we go back to A and start all over again!

New episodes on Tuesdays.
