Funny story on it: I moved Space Duel in its "Asteroids" form to be the FIRST color XY game and worked with the early color XY system. it would have spinning color asteroids, color explosions, etc. I wrote a bunch of color macros to add to the B&W XY system already in progress. Then, Asteroids Deluxe came out and the idea of a color version of Asteroids was pushed off. Given that, I started reworking the game to its current state, but it pushed off the game in time. First Person Space Invaders was being developed in XY, and since it was ahead of me now, the color system was moved there. Never heard of First Person Space Invaders? The concept didn't work, and was changed to become Tempest! It still got the first color system. My audio routines and color vector macros and all! *SIGH!* Game DescriptionSpace Duel is the first and only multi-player interactive vector game by Atari. This feature it itself makes it interesting and actually really fun to play. The game is based on play from Asteroids and Asteroids Deluxe but offers more enemy types and challenges.
