MRGPlays Space Attack (Atari 2600) -- Retro Let’s Play and Reminiscence

Space Attack was one of those games that I didn’t remember much, probably because I didn’t know how to play it as a kid. What I found was actually something of a marvel of 2600 game development – this one has Real Time Strategy elements (admittedly, they are rudimentary) combined with a space shooter. Who knew! There is also a mode where the game will continue to play the RTS in the background while you are blasting aliens in the shooter mode. Who knew?!
As for the game, the shooting is fun, but the RTS/radar screen controls are cumbersome and unintuitive.

Playing on the Atari 2600+. No additional enhancements.
