Encounter

Encounter! is a first person shoot 'em up video game released in 1983 for Atari 8-bit computers and Commodore 64. It was programmed by Paul Woakes who co-founded Novagen Software to publish it in the UK and Europe. Synapse Software released the game in North America. Encounter! is similar to Atari, Inc.'s 1980 arcade game Battlezone, but with much faster gameplay and large, sometimes screen-filling, scaled bitmaps instead of wireframe models.
