Star Wars: The Arcade Game 12/15/83
There's not a lot of difference between this prototype and the
one from 12/5/83, but there have been some additions. The
colors have been tweaked a bit (the shields are now red), but
the trench and fireball placeholders are now an odd shade of
green. The lasers have been changed to look like actual
lasers now instead of alternating lines. The player can
now also move the targeting cursor around (although it moves way
too fast). The shield counter will slowly count down and
reset to eight once it reaches zero. It's also worth
noting that the guns are shaped differently (more square) than
they are in the final.
The movement controls are not inverted in this prototype (up
is up and down is down), this would be reverted back in the next
prototype (12/23/83).
Mmm... Green...
