Communist Mutants from Space

Communist Mutants from Space is a fixed shooter video game programmed by Stephen H. Landrum for the Atari 2600 with the Starpath Supercharger cassette accessory.

The communist mutant armies are controlled by the Mother Creature, a strange alien who has gone mad due to irradiated vodka.

Because the Mother Creature replenishes eggs when they hatch or are destroyed, it must be defeated before the player can advance to the next wave.

"Time warp" allows the player to press up on the joystick to temporarily slow the enemies.

Holding fire during power-on of the Atari 2600 causes the "HI" on the high scores screen to change to "SHL", the initials of programmer Stephen H.

Destroy the Mother Creature while avoiding mutants and their bombs.
