Am I thinking of Laser Blast?

[2Dskillz]

I am trying to find the name of an Atari 2600 game I remember playing when I was about 7 years old.

What I recall is that 3 UFO's would fly around the top of the screen, and you would be firing at them from the bottom of the screen. Once you destroyed the 3 UFOs, the screen would seem to scroll to the right and once again you would fight 3 more. The UFOs would get quicker ETC...

Is this laser blast or another title? If it helps I think the cart had a yellow label.

Thanks SO much.

Indeed, it looks like that is the game.

Thank you very much Vectorman0.

You are now my hero.

Only catch is that in Laser Blast, YOU controlled the single UFO on the top of the screen, firing at the 3 bases on the ground.

The three extra ships you see at the top(at least in the label mock-up) are the number of lives left.

I'm thinking Megamania is closer to the game that 2d is describing.
