Spacewar! Review

Review of Spacewar! powered by the Slant community.
Spacewar! was perhaps the first sophisticated video game, created in 1962. Although not the earliest known video game, it featured two spaceships fighting each other around a gravity well, with the ability to shoot projectiles. The inclusion of a gravity simulation and missiles made the game very sophisticated for its day, and was a precursor for games to come.
