Similar to Encounter, the 1984 Atari 800 game, Backlash is a first person shooter set on a desolate planet where hostile alien vehicles emerge from the ground. Slow-moving, dodgeable fireballs are used by both the player and the enemies. Progress is indicated by the planet having a day/night cycle, where every day has a new color scheme. The game has an extremely clean art style and interface, and the audio sounds like generated sounds only.
