Clowns and Balloons: Playthrough

Clowns and Balloons (c) Datasoft 1982 for the Atari 8 bit line of computers

Interesting combination of Pong-inspired games, like the crappy "Trial by Fire!" (Analog Computing 1987) or the earlier and much better "Pinhead" (Utopia Software 1982), and the absolute classic "Breakout" (Atari 1979). The physics is good and the collision detection is solid, though not perfect - but the gameplay as such is entertaining enough for player to be able to completely ignore it.

Using the Atari800Win PLus emulator (http://www.a800win.atari-area.prv.pl) with standard Atari 800XL settings (XL/XE / 64kB RAM / PAL mode).
