Alien Blitz

Alien Blitz for the Dragon 32

Alien Blitz is an action game released by Gem Software for the Dragon 32 in 1982. In the game players take on the role of a commander of an alien spaceship. The ship has faulty engines and low fuel requiring an emergency landing; unfortunately, the ship is also flying above a city meaning there is no space to land! To clear a suitable landing location, players need to bomb the buildings in the city until it is flat enough to land. The spaceship begins on the top of the screen and constantly moves left and right while slowly moving lower on the screen. Players can drop one bomb at a time to damage and eventually destroy buildings along the bottom of the screen. The goal is to clear a landing space before fuel runs out or the spaceship is low enough and crashes into a tall building.
