Synopsis

Assault is a 1983 fixed shooter video game developed and published by Bomb for the Atari 2600. Controlling a spaceship fixated at the bottom of the screen, gameplay involves shooting projectiles towards an enemy mothership that deploys smaller ships to attack the player. The player must also prevent enough projectiles from touching the bottom of the screen. Assault was produced by Bomb, a video game developer based out of Asia. Upon release, It received mediocre reviews from critics, with many of them criticizing the graphics and referring to it as a ripoff of games such as Galaxian and Demon Attack. Some reviewers stated that despite being unoriginal, it was still fun to play, labeling it one of Bomb's better releases for the 2600.
