Dogfight

Dogfight © 1972 Hertig & Frye.

A networked multiplayer shooting game. In this 2D plane flying game players try to shoot each other out of the sky. The game features special effects by quickly invoking the slide projector in the terminal multiple times which makes the terminal light up and buzz and shake. Matchmaking was done using the big board system typical of PLATO multiplayer games, where people who logged in saw a screen with the names of everyone currently logged in and could challenge them.
