Space DuelPC Port

Two spaceships face each other from opposite sides of the screen, moving up and down and firing laser bursts across at each other. A hit is worth 10 points, but every shot costs one, so a hit nets nine and wild firing loses points. The first to the target score wins, chosen before the game as 80 or 500. A hit sets off an explosion and the screen flashes. The ships glide smoothly and move faster the longer you hold the stick. Each ship has one laser burst in flight at a time, and a score never drops below zero. Two players duel each other, or one player flies the left ship against the computer.

Controls: Joystick 1 flies the left ship and joystick 2 the right: up and down move, and the left button fires. With one player the computer flies the right ship. Before a game, up and down choose one or two players, left and right the target score, and the left button starts. The keypad is not used.
