I'm amazed that no-one's commented on this one so far. Given the limitations of the VCS, they managed to come up with a playable game. I use this cartridge in a 2600 Jr to test 9-pin joysticks, in fact, and often end up doing a couple of screens worth of garishly-coloured space rocks.
Incidentally, your comment about the bullets being hard to see is spot on. Modern TVs just don't tune in to these old systems well. I'm trying to find a composite mod for the 2600 Jr (PAL) to overcome this.
