Message
Welcome to our 115th Squad Challenge!!! For this challenge we're playing Activision's MEGAMANIA designed by Steve Cartwright and released for the Atari 2600 in 1982. Special thanks to @Sabertooth for nominating this game for High Score Squad! Megamania is a space nightmare where you are attacked by wave after wave of space objects like hamburgers, cookies, bugs and diamonds, bow ties, space dice and radial tires. It plays a little like Space Invaders, using the Joystick to move left to right and firing missiles. Your missiles move and are guided by your joystick. ROM and PDF Instruction Manual are provided below. I hope you all have fun, and good luck to everybody participating. Can you become a MEGAMANIAC?!
