Title: Quiz: How many of these old school spaceships can you identify?
Post by: pinzach on May 22, 2012, 04:04:13 pm

I'm making a t-shirt for myself and cut out a bunch of old-school ships to combine in photoshop.  The shirt actually has all the names on it, but I erased the names to post this quiz.  All of these are the ships you play as (not the enemy).  There are 15 of them, how many can you name?  If you know them all, post a comment underneath the blog post.  (I'll spot you "Galaga")

Yeah, it's amazing how few I would have known if I hadn't made the quiz/shirt myself.  I guess you just don't pay attention to the details.

I recognize seeing several, but couldn't name what game they came from.  Do I get half credit?   ;D

Truthfully, I would have gotten one more correct. Galaxian There are a couple others that are familiar but can't place the name of the game with them.

I got 6 which is a lot better than I thought I would do.  Still only 50%.  Nice shirt design.

That's awesome.
I got 8 (Moon Cresta, Galaxian, Phoenix, Pleaides, Astro Blaster, Juno First, Mad Planets, and Galaga).  But the one on the top of the pyramid wins the prize -- what is it?
