Description: Blaster is an obscure arcade game created by Williams as a spiritual successor to the popular Robotron: 2084 arcade game. Only about 500 copies of Blaster were produced for the arcades, as it's 3D action (unusual for 1983) and difficult nature sealed Blaster's fate from the start. What makes this game more interesting is it was originally conceived and written first for the Atari 400/800, and then ported to the 5200 when the 5200 hardware was finalized. At some point the developers showed the prototype to Williams, who decided they wanted to make an arcade adaptation of the game. Unfortunately, due to the weak video game market in 1984, Blaster was never released as planned by Atari.
