Omega Race (set 1)
Midway • 1981


Omega Race places players in the year 2003, tasked with piloting an Omegan Space Fighter to defend star colonies from invading alien androids. This two-player vector shooter challenges you to destroy waves of enemy ships and mines within a confined playing field, bouncing off invisible barriers that briefly reveal themselves upon impact. Players control their fighter using a spinner knob for rotation and thrusting movement, employing forward-firing lasers to eliminate the increasingly aggressive attackers. As gameplay progresses, expect to encounter multiple enemies per wave, including Command and Death Ships which pose unique threats with mines and rapid fire.
