Starfighter
A mix of an arcade and simulation game written by Sparky Starks in which the player pilots a spacecraft, the SC-78503 Starfighter, with the goal to destroy hostile enemy spacecraft.
Overview The game was first published in 1981 for the TRS-80 under the name Starfighter.
Later Sparky Starks wrote a version of Starfighter for the Atari 8-bit systems using the name Destiny: The Cruiser. A new title was required because the rights to the name Starfighter had already been sold for use by the 1984 movie The Last Starfighter. Although the Atari 8-bit version only reached prototype stage.
