Spitfire Ace
From Handwiki Spitfire Ace is a combat flight simulator video game created and published by then-newly formed MicroProse. It was one of the first video games designed and programmed by Sid Meier. It was originally developed for Atari 8-bit family (1982) and ported to the Commodore 64 (1984) and PC (as a booter, 1984). The PC port was by R. Donald Awalt.[1] The Commodore 64 version was ported by Dale Gray and Ron Verovsky.[2]
Gameplay
The game puts the player in the pilot's seat during World War II. The player defends London during The Blitz while flying the Supermarine Spitfire.[3] The game offers 15 different scenarios that include France, Malta and D-Day.
Reception
Softline in 1984 called Spitfire Ace and Hellcat Ace's graphics "extremely simple".[4] Computer Gaming World in 1993 stated that the game "has been severely wrinkled by age".[5]
