'Lost in Space' – New game for Atari 8-bit computers!

lost_in_spaceMr Atari has given to all of us an amazing Xmas present, ‘Lost in Space’ a new game for the Atari 8-bit computers.

The game guide starts with “You are a space-captain racing against rivaling lunar-landers. Your goal is to land and rendezvous 15 times. Can you beat the competition or set an unbeatable mission-time?”

The game contains five challenging levels, including limitations and sudden death.

If you are aware of our own Mission:Moon for the Commodore 64, ‘Lost in Space’ offers the same gameplay where you land, then go back to the mothership. While my game was coded in BASIC and using PETSCII, the Atari game is all done in machine language using hires graphics as well as supports one to four players competing against each other. In other words, way better!

The competition between players associated with the time constraints makes the game very fun to play, and better with a friend.
