Cruise Chaser Blassty[a] is a 1986 role-playing video game developed by Square for various Japanese computers, including the NEC PC-8801, PC-9801, and Sharp X1.
The game had an unusual battle system, which involved the player controlling a customizable mecha robot from a first-person view.
[3] The graphics were made by Hiromi Nakata and Bruno Miki, and the original designs for the mecha were done by Mika Akitaka.
Project EGG, a licensed emulator for home computer games, included Cruise Chaser Blassty in its limited edition "Classic PC-Game Collection" on September 8, 2013, alongside The Death Trap, Will: The Death Trap II, Alpha, and Genesis—other Square games released between 1984 and 1987.
[2] The soundtrack to Cruise Chaser Blassty was Nobuo Uematsu's debut project, which he composed with Takashi Uno.
