/mac/game/space/ballaz1.2a.sit.hqx

 120     6/22/92   BinHex4.0,StuffIt3.01

 

   Repel an invasion of Ballaz(es?) by moving your two ships (or each

   of two players can control one ship) around the playing field.

 

/mac/game/space/galaxis1.1.cpt.hqx

 588    10/23/92    BinHex4.0,Compact1.33

 

   Sorta like those minefield games, only here you're in space and

   you gotta rescue lost spaceships by triangulating where they might

   be.  Many bug fixes.

 

/mac/game/space/missile3.0.hqx

 14      2/13/91    BinHex4.0

 

   An old game (1987?), but it still works (and pretty well, at

   that..) on the new Mac IIs.  This is Missile Command for the

   Macintosh. Defend your cities from incoming MIRV nuclear missiles.

 

/mac/game/space/pararena1.3.cpt.hqx

 246     5/20/91    BinHex4.0,Compact1.3

 

   Race around on a parabolic dish trying to dunk or kick a ball into

   a tiny hole on one side of the dish..  meanwhile, your computer

   opponent is trying to  rollerderby-style slam you off the dish!

   Includes  some nice graphic & sound effects.. certain things don't

   work unless you pay the $8 shareware fee.

 

/mac/game/space/solariantwo1.04.cpt.hqx

 717      4/2/91    BinHex4.0,Compact1.33

 

   It's big, but it's not bad.  Very, very much like Galaxian, only

   with different creatures to fight and different things to get.

   Basically a really, really updated version of Space Invaders (but

   aren't video games?).  Requires Color QuickDraw.

 

/mac/game/space/spacedodge1.1.hqx

  14     9/16/91    BinHex4.0

 

   Tiny game where you avoid asteroids flying down at you and try to

   catch the fuel/sheield canisters.

 

/mac/game/space/spacetag.cpt.hqx

  69     6/17/92    BinHex4.0,Compact1.33

 

   An older but very good black&white game.  Works well on the newer

   machines.

 

/mac/game/space/starroids7.0.sit.hqx

 146     2/20/91    BinHex4.0,StuffIt 1.6

 

   Another Asteroids-type game.. nice sound  effects, user-definable

   controls.. b/w only.

 

/mac/game/space/starrunner1.0.cpt.hqx

 290    10/27/92    BinHex4.0,Compact1.33



   StarRunner: Return to Nemesis. Black&White only game (shucks) that will

   work on any monitor size (compact macs included). Requires System 7

   and a 68020-based Mac. Interesting variation on the ancient classic

   'Defender.' Nice sounds, smooth montion and enjoyable play. 



/mac/game/space/stellaobscura.sit.hqx

 120     2/20/91    BinHex4.0,StuffIt 1.6

 

   A 3-D game.. b/w only.  (3-D in the fact that  there's two

   "screens" that you can separate by constructing a "viewer".

   Instructions included... you shoot away "tie-fighters" and try to

   pass through Star Portals..

 

/mac/game/space/trek1.2.cpt.hqx

 101     7/29/91     BinHex4.0,Compact1.33

 

   Based on the popular terminal game, you command a Federation space

   ship running around the galaxy blowing up Romulans and Klingons

   attacking your starbases.
