Cosmic Patrol is a first-person space combat game programmed by Jake Commander for the TRS-80 Model I and III, published by Instant Software in 1980.[1]
Gameplay
Cosmic Patrol is a game in which the player pilots a Terran fighter with a mission to destroy the invading Quelons.[2] The game is very similar to the 1978 Magnavox Odyssey² cartridge Cosmic Conflict!.[1]
Reception
Jon Mishcon reviewed Cosmic Patrol in The Space Gamer No. 34.[2] Mishcon commented that "If you're really into video arcade, this is a good shoot-em-up. But it's doubtful you'd spend [the price] to master this at an arcade."[2]
