Summary
Cosmic Avenger is an ordanairy side-on shooter, where you control a tiny space shuttle blasting your way through hoards of enemies. It was first released on the arcade in 1981 and then released on the Colecovision in 1982.
The whole objective of the game is to destroy oncoming enemies with your cannon and rally high amounts of points. Another basic feature is that you can drop a bomb from the bottom of your shuttle to obliterate threats below you so you dont get shot down. It only takes one hit from an enemy bullet or missle to blow you into a hundred peices.
