Quest of the Space Beagle is an action-adventure game written by Scott Lamb for Atari 8-bit computers and published by Avalon Hill Microcomputer Games in 1984.[1] It is the sequel to Jupiter Mission 1999 .[2] A Commodore 64 port followed in 1985.[3]
Gameplay [ edit ]
Quest of the Space Beagle is a collection of minigames about the player finding and returning to Earth after a failed trip to Jupiter in the previous game.[4]
Development [ edit ]
Scott Lamb wrote the game in Atari BASIC .[2]
The manual contains a note about a programming technique used to create the visuals: "One effect employs alternating graphics screens every 60th second, which considerably extends the graphics capabilities of the Atari computer. A side effect of this technique is flicker."[5]
Reception [ edit ]
In an Antic review, Michael Ciraolo wrote, "there is little incentive to get to the next level so the game gets boring quickly. You do the same thing again and again."[4] He also disliked the flickering effect of the graphics. Steve Hudson wrote in Compute! : "The game's programmers have used some pretty fancy techniques to jazz up an already exciting game," and called one screen "an incredibly realistic display".[6]
