Alpha Beam with Ernie
Alpha Beam with Ernie is a video game released in 1983 by Atari for the Atari 2600 console. It is based on the children's television show "Sesame Street", which was a huge hit in the United States and several other countries around the world.
In the game, the player assumes the role of Ernie, one of the show's iconic characters. The goal is to help him use his laser beam to protect his hometown from alien invaders. To do this, the player must use the Atari 2600 controller to move Ernie and his laser beam back and forth on the screen, shooting at approaching enemies.
As the player progresses through the game, the difficulty increases, with faster and harder-to-hit enemies. In addition, the player also needs to be careful not to hit the city's buildings, which can be damaged by laser beam shots.
The game features simple graphics, typical of Atari-era games, but with a colorful and vibrant style that reflects the cheerful atmosphere of the "Sesame Street" show. The soundtrack is also simple but effective, with sound effects that help immerse the player in the game's action.
Alpha Beam with Ernie is a classic Atari 2600 game that is still remembered by many video game fans as one of the best games based on children's shows. It is a fun and nostalgic example of video game history, and can still be enjoyed by players of all ages.
