Gladiator waves (represented by a "G" in this version) are waves that the first player to dismount the other player earns 3,000 points.
thumbnail
In this port for the Atari 2600, while "S" means a survival wave, in two-player games, the "S" means a team wave, thus saving a few bytes of code.
thumbnail
Just like other Atari 2600 games (e.g. Dig Dug and Moon Patrol), this version includes a Children's Version (represented by a teddy bear head), which one enemy attacks at a time.
