whole office mucking around on online arcade games today. what was the shooter, scrolled from left to right, your ship was travelling through a tunnell. you could shoot straight ahead and also drop bombs……killing me trying to remember it and find it.

scramble

Could be Scramble.

That was my favourite old school arcade game.

There was one called Cobra that was like that.

was also known as 'bomber' in my local arcade emporium

This is going to P*** me off all day! It took a lot of my money waiting for trains at Didcot in the early 80's

it is Scramble, pretty good but my favourites were Defender and Battlezone. I also had a pretty bad 'operation wolf' habit when that came out.

Just found the game of my holiday to spain as a 7 year old.
Empire City 1931.
