Color Caterpillar	Soft Sector Marketing (The Rugby Circle)	1983	5.25disk cassette commercial joystick license-proprietary platformreference score	An ecological system out of control; the last survivors band together in the valley. Of the predator insects the caterpillar remains as the worst menace because of its amazing ability to reproduce. From your mobile post, your guns are aimed at the moving target: a raging caterpillar splits in two with each half going in opposite directions. Even if, in your persistence, you manage to destroy the creature, another one appears one segment longer than the previous caterpillar. Adopting to its hostile environment, if the caterpillar reaches the valley below without attacking you, he transforms into a killer moth. Your survival instincts are not nearly so advanced as those of your foe. Snatch up this survival epic. A challenging fast-action, machine language, arcade-style game. You'll need plenty of practice. Rated the best arcade simulation of its type. Requires 16K memory for the cassette version. [Carney]*** [148]

Save your position on tape with a cassette recorder and continue later! [Carney]
Color Invaders	Computerware	1982	alieninvasion commercial cover cover-destructible coversystem difficulty fixedshooter license-proprietary lives platformreference score spaceinvaderslike	Shoot the invading aliens and occasional UFO for points. Hide behind the destructible shields or fire through them. Aliens reverse direction and advance downward after reaching the edge of the screen. This is a clone of Atari 2600 Space Invaders (not Arcade Space Invaders). It's got all the same difficulty settings and options, the same 6 columns of aliens that speedup based on home many are left, the same UFO, same scoring, and everything is shaped extremely similar to the Atari 2600 version.

Color Space Invaders	Barnett & Bank Bros.;Spectral Associates (Spectral Associates)	1981	5.25disk cassette coco1 coco2 coco3 cover-destructible fixedshooter joystick lives platformreference score spaceinvaderslike	[b]Additional external review(s):[/b] - The Rainbow, Issue #4 (Vol. 01 No. 04 - October 1981), Rating: Very positive ([url=https://archive.org/details/rainbowmagazine-1981-10/page/n7/mode/2up]View[/url])*Color Space Invaders is an exciting, arcade quality game designed especially for the TRS-80 Color Computer. It is written entirely in machine language to obtain the fastest possible action, uses the highest resolution graphics available and does not require Extended Basic. You must defend the earth from the attacking invaders while dodging their bombs. Just when you think you've got them beaten, they speed up and come at you faster. Color Space Invaders has all of the features of the arcade game plus two exciting new ones - a mobile defensive shield will help defend you against the invader's bombs and a mystery invader which zooms in and out of hyperspace.
