So, what do you get if you re-use the engine for Meteor!?

Graphics: 3 Sound: 3 Replay Value: 2 Notes: 1-player Screen Shots

Many people pan Space Hawk as some poor, lame Asteroids knock-off. I liked the sound effects, and that you had the option for "direct" drive vs. "drift" drive. After all, since Mattel chickened out on Meteor! and instead made Astrosmash!, they had to use the engine for something. Of course, you could also play this game forever. I think at one point I had 758 pilots and the game took several hours just to kill all of them. Best Score (Historical): 22 million+ [Got tired of playing. Had 758 guys when I quit!]

A total of eight Space Hawk box variants have been documented.
