Asteroids software includes a new feature allowing the selection of EASY gameplay (original) versus HARD gameplay. This implementation is a result of merging the original Atari Asteroids software with a previously rare Atari Asteroids release. This later Asteroids release changed the game software in order to make the gameplay more difficult. The Asteroids Multigame allows selection of either difficulty level. See Asteroids harder gameplay details (jpg).
|
|
Atari released a 2nd version of Asteroids Deluxe which had easier gameplay (probably due to complaints). In that revision they added a DIP switch setting allowing selection of the original (hard) gameplay or the new (easy) version. This kit is based off the 2nd release and allows selection of EASY or HARD gameplay via the setup menu. See Asteroids Deluxe Revision 2 release (jpg).

|
Fixes the Asteroids "missing last letter on the 10th score" bug. There is a bug in the Atari REV2 code whereby every time you start a game, the last letter (initial) in the 10th score is erased. The modified software on this kit fixes that errata.
|
|
The Lunar Landing implementation on the multigame gives visual feedback on the screen when selecting the mission type.
