A spacebound, multi-directional shoot ’em up built around scanning, inertia, and survival.
The briefing
Blastar is a top-down space shooter for Amiga in which alien enemies approach from every direction across 12 levels. A scanner helps locate threats, while the ship’s heavy inertia makes steering and braking a constant challenge.
Collisions weaken the ship, and too much damage costs one of three lives. The game presents a 400-screen play area with animated backgrounds, a full techno soundtrack, and substantial sound and graphics content for an OCS game.
