Cheats, Tricks and Bugs

There are several hidden targets to shoot and hidden static ground targets will appear when locked-on. The biplane and formations of the player's ship from Time Pilot occasionally appear. Shoot any formation of like ships for bonus points. Destroying the biplane from Time Pilot which occasionally appears will earn you an extra life.

Game Introduction

Continuing where Time Pilot left off, Time Pilot '84 is set only over futurstic fantastic alien cityscapes. Each level features unique ships, including metallic vehicles that cannot be shot by bullets but must be shot with a guided missile after acquiring lock-on. Each level ends with the same boss, a large saucer that shoots guided missiles. This boss appears after destroying a certain (unknown) number of enemies.

Game Play

As in Time Pilot, pushing the joystick in a direction makes player's ship rotate to face that direction and travel that way. Guided missiles can be shot continuously; they are unlimited in number.

Rarity is NOT necessarily an indication of value. Some common games show up as very rare here because collectors don't want them (they are common because arcade operators might be sitting on tons of them in warehouses), while some fairly scarce games are grabbed by collectors every time they show up. Additionally, some games made in the last 5 years are still making money for operators and are thus not yet affordable to the typical collector. For a clue to value, compare how many people have this game vs. how many people want this game and then click on the eBay links to help determine an accurate price range.

Technical

The game uses two 6809 microprocessors and one Z80 microprocessor and three SN76489A PSGs for sound.
