Help me remember a VCS game

[Nitrosport]

About 12 years ago or so, I played a game on my uncles 2600. All I can remember is a black background and that I had to run across the screen while jumping over some projectiles that would come toward me intermittently. I was young at the time so I can't remember all the details but I believe I had to run to some type of building / castle.

Although I have a 2600, my library of games is quite small and I haven’t run into the game I'm thinking of. I should also mention my uncle had a European vcs and I believe a multicart because I could vaguely remember him scrolling through numbers to get to the game he wanted.

sounds like the running man

did you have to run up screen or side screen?

if up screen then i think its the running man

Dragonfire?

Imagic's Dragonfire was my first thought as well.

Dragonfire?

Yes! that's it! I have to get this game before I visit my uncle this summer.

Huh? I must've missed that one...

Yay, Dragonfire! It came to my mind immediately when I read the OP description. This is the first time I guessed anything right here; too bad I'm late.

I had this game when I was a kid, and just loved it. Gotta find myself a copy now...

I just ordered me a copy this morning.

Thanks for the help everyone!
