This is probably the first C64 game I ever played. Coded by Mike Wacker and released by Rabbit Software, this is a very simple Defender style shooter with homing missile AI on all ships which gets very old very quickly. Even in '83, this was a very simple game and was quickly superseded by better games. Not one to return to but a snapshot of where early C64 games were. Wacker released a follow up in the same year which was, somehow, much much worse than the original.
