"Battlezone" for the C64 was published by Atarisoft in 1983. It looks quite nice and, for the most part, the vectors are well done. There is some odd display behaviour if a landscape object overlaps the constantly spewing volcano. The constantly spewing part is an odd choice as well. Movement across the landscape is frustrating at times, as you run into objects when moving backward that should be nowhere near your tank. It seems like the traversal speed is set too high. It is also extremely difficult to dodge the shots of enemy tanks. I managed it once in this play session. There are other oddities that I could point out, but I've probably done too much of that already. πŸ˜‰

This port is adequate, but not excellent.
