Pursuit is a 1975 combat flight simulator video game developed and published by Kee Games for arcades. The player controls a World War I flying ace who tries to shoot down enemy planes. Gameplay is from a first person perspective. Pursuit marks the first time Atari, Inc. publicly acknowledged its relationship with Kee.[2]
Gameplay
The player uses a flight stick to steer the plane up, down, right, and left to get the enemy in his or her sights. The top-mounted fire button is then used to shoot the enemy plane and gain points.
Release
The game is housed in a custom wide cabinet modeled to look like a World War I biplane cockpit. It includes a similarly modeled flight stick with top-mounted fire button. The game's PCB is composed of discrete technology and includes Atari/Kee's Durastress technology.[2] One overlay provides the onscreen crosshair.[3]
