Alpha One == Major Havoc prototype
Asterock == Asteroids bootleg
Bradley Trainer == Battlezone variation (not really a true game either)
Delta Race == Omega Race clone
Lunar Battle == Gravitar prototype
Meteorites - not on KLOV, not in MAME
QB-3 - only recently added to MAME, little info on KLOV, will add what I can find
Stellar Castle == Star Castle clone
Tempest Tubes == Tempest bootleg

I did the list as an offshoot from one of the topics where the ZVG and the concept of a vector only cab was brought up. With a Space Duel cab you can support a high percentage of the vector games, but it would be next to impossible to support all of them without a frankenpanel or modular controls.

Or swappable panels, which are not the same as modular controls.

"Meteorites" may be "Meteor" an Asteroids Clone

There is also a "Meteoroids" that is raster

Lastly there is a "Meteor Part II" of which nothing is known except for a marquee image according to KLOV.
