Beam Rider

Overview

Beam Rider is a 1-player arcade game for the TRS-80 Coco.

The player moves a small ball about a puzzle, trying to gather all the blue blocks on the screen. The player moves rapidly about the blue blocks, but moves very slowly when in open green space. If the player moves towards blue blocks separated by a green space, they shoot out a beam that pulls them immediately towards that position. If all blocks are gathered, the player moves to a new puzzle. A bouncing red ball poses danger to the player. Bonus blocks offer temporary invincibility. The player starts with 3 spare balls.
