Activision's Pastfinder is an unusual vertically scrolling shoot 'em up that sees you attempting to track down alien artifacts while minimising the effects of deadly radiation. Let's Play! https://youtu.be/5hfDz3fGkss

One of my all time fave... love the 3d effect, the well designed action plus strategy... played it often...and isn't it 16k only?

An underrated Atari 8-bit classic by far!Played it to death from 1984 until 1987,started again in 2002 and still playing to this day!Great arcade action with enough strategy to involve without spoiling the action,and random game elements make it different every time.Rates in my all-time Atari 8-bit games alongside Protector,Shamus,Lode Runner,Star Raiderss,Crossfire,Sea Dragon,etc,etcAnd thats just my favourites today...
