Birthday Mania

(Atari 2600 - US, Other)
Developed_By:
Personal Games Company
Released On:
01 Jan 1984
Birthday Mania is a simple overhead shooter where waves of candles fall from the top of the screen. Using the dial on a paddle controller, players move their character left and right and use the fire button to shoot them. Each wave features a set number of candles, and there are pauses between waves.
The game's unique selling point was its customization option. Players could order the game as a gift for someone else; the developer would personalize the title screen with the recipient's name and create a one-off copy. The manual and label also had space to write in the recipient's name by hand.
