Awesome game play! My mother and I played this in the early 80s until we practically had blisters on our thumbs. My mom actually used BOTH controllers simultaneously, one in each hand, so she could RUN and SHOOT at the same time! Using one controller you have to stop running to fire the Disc. And that's actually the secret to evading the "Orange Guys" as we used to call them, who appear after 1 million points with their deadly white rods. Using both controllers lets you evade them while firing on them, and as each of them takes FOUR hits before disintegrating, this tactic is essential to continuing the game. My mom, who was in her early 30s in the early 80s, was the master of this technique, and as I recall she once scored over 2 million points on this crazy, fun-as-hell game.
Your mother is a legend!!!! Bro, thanks for sharing. My mom got my love of video games started in the early 80s. My mother was a Pac Man master. Your story of your mom hit my ❤️
@@HummaKavula-DontVoteForStupid Thank you!! She was also a poker genius, a Monopoly mastermind, and a rare Baby Boomer aficionado of all video games, especially Mario Kart and any kind of car racing game! Your mom sounds cool, too! Pac-Man players for life!!
This game more than any other from my childhood taught me the power of grinding, persevering and achieving on video games. I played this hour after hour, day after day with what we all know is the worst controller in the history of home consoles. Slowly, the achievements started to come. Taking out my first Recognizer was an incredibly powerful feeling of mastery. I felt like Flynn himself…sent into the game grid to battle the MCP and take them down one disc chucker at a time, one Recognizer at a time. Blocking and shattering their discs before de-rezzing them all to digital Hell…it filled my pleasure receptors and ran up my score. Then the orange dudes with the white sticks would finally show up and take my disc and go home…game over. End of line…
Loved this game! Awesome you blocked/shattered their discs, that was my favorite thing to do. The first time I cracked a million I got caught by a memory guard like you did. After that I never ran through or even near the doors. 12 million something was my highest score. Thanks for sharing this. It takes me back to a simpler world.
Utopia was best played against someone who knew what they were doing. I remember once my friend put a rebel on my land and I proceeded to fill his whole island up with them. I was smoking him in $ obviously. I thought we were going to be friendly, but he choose poorly.
I lost all my intellivision games years ago and have regretted it ever since. I've got a lot of them back on a ps2 collection ,but this is one i was never able to locate. This is definitely one of my favorite games on the system. I used to play 4-6 hours a day,and those controllers required a lot of pressure and were not that comfortable. However, after injuring my hand in a different activity I strongly recommend taking a break every hour or so. This was my first system and what got me into gaming. So many nice memories, thanks for the video.
Wow, I never knew you could shoot that huge robot from overhead! I always lined up perfectly from the side. I could have been the 8 year old king of our neighborhood!
Oh the memories and sweaty hands. For me, this game didn't really start until you reached the orange men with lethality sticks. Once you did, you could no longer easily hide and defend yourself within the chamber doors for fear of being stuck in the back (as you so clearly demonstrated). Now, you HAD to expose yourself in the arena against the formidable brown discs and white targeting discs, let alone, escape through the doors from the orange men only to succumb to the inevitable.
You, me and a lot of people. Those were the days when it would not matter if the game was good or bad, we just see the cover of the game and we only want to have fun.
No TDD user would allow the Recognizer to simply exit the playing field once you hit it in the eye. You should bounce as many discs and insults off of it as you can. Obey!
I remember getting to 1,000,000 too in 1985 but oh boy… you played this like a master ! I wish I he learnt like you how easy was to destroy the red big machine… now it makes more sense. Lol
What a trip down memory lane!! i was the only one in my neighborhood w/intellivision. everybody else had Atari back then. i remember christmas morning getting intellivision. goodbye world!!! would play THIS game for days!!
Loved this game! I played so much of it. The trick I use was to stay at the bottom and when ennemies would show up, I would block their disc, it would get destroyed and then killed them as it would give more points per kill and being at the bottom meant they could not hit me from under.
I hate the white disc, it doesnt allow you to use the doors all times, because once they appear and you are close to them, they will shoot you. Thanks for watching !!!.
I got so good at this game, that it would stop working! I did it about 3 times. It takes about 2 hours, and a lot of patience. Takes the cake as the best intellivision game ever. I did not know you could do a "top shot". I always went in for the super precise side shot. You never get game over, you just stay away from the door while the respawn.
Very good how you beat the interceptor. But remember: keep away from the orange guards (starting from 1 milion), therefore you must not wait near the doors! I used to destroy the orange guards, in the 1989-1992, you must hit them 4 times, if I remember right.
If you ever get a chance, check out my RUclips posting of this game. I used to have the world record, and now I’m number 2 in the world. I scored over 15 million.
My mother back the 80's scored 14million on this game. I scored 9 mil, brother scored 8 mill and my pop scored 11 million. We were addicted as a family. Good time.
@@MavGit just takes time. Go to the bottom left or right corner of the screen and you can block/break the disks more easily. Never stay close to doors. The recognizer you can take from the sides. Your game style is far too risky : a mistake will quickly happen. It makes no sense to stay close to the doors. You should open all of them so that the recognizer takes more time to close them, in case of a miss. Makes more score too. The yellow stick guards are impressive but not a big deal in my souvenir. I think the white disks are more dangerous
Park in the lower right corner and block, you cant get hit with careful blocking, pick your shots carefully and you can play forever. I would kill all but one guy run up and break all the doors and kill the recognizer over and over.. no idea about points but pretty sure I could play for hours.. been so long ago maybe my memory is bad.
The strategy I figured out eventually was to go take my guy and hunker down in the lower right corner which was somewhat of a blind spot! All I would do was keep the shield up and break their shots for many levels!! The game would finally get too hard when the last set of guards - the orange ones with the long white batons would come out! They were hard to trick!!
We didn t get to see what the orange dudes have as weapons

13 million points.I’d stuffed him in the top right slot and he would deflect the discs.The real secret,at the later stage,is to collect points by stopping the discs and stop killing the enemy.That way you never have to fight the security guard chaps.
It’s hard to imagine that this is a walt disney game, it simply lacks that magic feel of walt disney. BUT still, this game was not only the first walt disney cartride videogame but it was also ahead of it’s time with support for the intelevoice module and it also did had some berally 3D depth to it. So whether this game is boring by todays standards or not, in 1982 this was all you could ask for😁🤣
I broke a million several times. But you always died in the end. So crude by today's standards, but so much fun. Those triple or double kills with one throw were "mint" as '80s kids used to say.
Yes, it is an emulator. I use the keybooard from 1 to 8 to match the same as the intellivision controller, and the buttons on the side any other you want. The emulator is " Nostalgia 5.0 ".
Staying away from doors especially if you kill one enemy, because they respawn and you don't know where exactly, since they are fast trying to slow them down or kill them fast. Also you have to deal with the white disc chasing you and with the recgonizer and hope dont close all the doors, because they are sometimes you escape and gain time.
@@MavG So stay away from doors? I would think the doors that might be a good way to stay away from them maybe? Can they be shot with a disc? I haven't even tried that yet. I know if I sit in the bottom left corner and block most of the time - its 10K points per disc and I can reach over a million without hardly shooting the recognizer, but that won't help when those orange guys come out! Thanks for sharing!
@@dirkdex at the beginning you can use the doors is a good way to stay away from the first enemies. But later with the orange ones is very dangeros be in one door and they shown up in the same door, if they touch you the game is over.
@@dirkdex yep. You can kill them with 4 continous hits. If they recover speed it means you have to hit them 4 times again. They start to appear after you reach 1 million points making the hardest enemy of the game.
Nice playing action !! Man, I wonder what it would be like to play Intellivision on a "perfect" picture :) ... I only play on the console for authentic action. That's my personal rule. I'm a purist. I'll be playing Tron in the near future and posting my videos. Wish me luck. Check out my Intellivision videos if you enjoy Intellivision play. Keep gaming !

40 years have passed since i first saw this game in the electronics store. Never forget!
Remember my brother getting a million points in this game. Definitely without a doubt the best of the Tron games on Intellivision
Always liked this game. Thank god for the emulators.
@@MavG still have & play the original system. Been playing it since mid 80's when I was 3 or 4 yrs old.
@@baltimorez-wad7281 I have an INtellivision but it is damage. No video. I try to repait ir but no luck. Maybe some day i will able to buy again one.
@@MavG I wish u the best on getting a new one. Definitely one of the top 2 systems ever made
@@baltimorez-wad7281 Thank You. !!
I used to spend hours on this. Brings back some great memories.
The good thing about today, is you can still play it, a bit different when you are playing with keyboard, but still fun. Cheers.
a single game could easily last an hour

So glad to see others found the sweet-spots for taking out the Recognizer. This was my favorite Intellivision game!
I remember being terrified of the Recognizer and its sound. One time, that sucker came out and I just plain switched off the console.

Did you raid a high clearance RAM in the Intellivision ?
Thanks for posting this, this game was probably my favorite on the Intellivision outside of Utopia.
Oh utopia. I remember playing that game and never understood how it was to play. Maybe because i was 6 years old .
Utopia was best played against someone who knew what they were doing. I remember once my friend put a rebel on my land and I proceeded to fill his whole island up with them. I was smoking him in $ obviously. I thought we were going to be friendly, but he choose poorly.

*doink!*
Yep! And they should've given you points for how many times you could hit it before it was gone!

goodbye world!!!
would play THIS game for days!!
One of the best games ever. I would like to see a reboot of this 2022 style.
Loved this game! I played so much of it. The trick I use was to stay at the bottom and when ennemies would show up, I would block their disc, it would get destroyed and then killed them as it would give more points per kill and being at the bottom meant they could not hit me from under.
So much fun. My friend had it. Had a couple minutes on it. You could really feel it. Best Tron game to date.
Hours on end man..was Troned out..so cool..my first game console..dope.
Loved this game! Wore out my fingers on that controller, but man the hours I sank into this game!
Dead by Guard... God, it was such a good run, too!
I hate the white disc, it doesnt allow you to use the doors all times, because once they appear and you are close to them, they will shoot you. Thanks for watching !!!.
When you get close to 1M you stop killing the enemy guys. Only break their discs. That way the guards don't appear.

Bad luck on the pokey bois. Good run
At Pen-Hi(high school in Penticton, B.C., I used to play this game and Intellivision during lunch break. I was pretty good back then.
Never ever seen someone do this good at this game! BRAVO!

When I was 7 I used to get so frustrated because my dad was so good at this game and I always got destroyed.
I'm remaking TDT in Game Builder Garage, so I came here to get a refresher on spawn and teleport mechanics :)
sad end to the game!! They immediately captured you!! I played this well past an hour for 1 game before. I literally was TRON!
I played this till my eyes bled
Such a great game I remember having the AI coming out with white clubs I didn't last long

gotta love a game with only farts as its SFX
In this game, Tron is supposed to be blue and not red, looks like you're playing with Zark, anyways I love it and Maze-A-Tron too.
This used to be my game.
Played it till the game cut off it was so hot.
Where are the guys with sticks that you had to hit 5 times consecutively?
Not every disker was "one hit one kill" so where were those?
That enemy is the one who killed me at the end of this video. Those are the orange ones.

They got tougher and tougher.
Hahah, I made over million points also in this game back in 80's
