Tac/Scan is a arcade game developed by Sega in 1982. It runs on the vector version of Sega's Sega G80 hardware. Tac/Scan is a shoot-'em up, however unlike traditional shooters, the player pilots up to a maximum of seven space ships at once. Ships can be taken out by enemy fire, but may be re-obtained later on and activated when the player sees fit.
As the game is powered by vector-based hardware, the game is able to switch views seamlessely. A third of the game has a traditional top-down shoot-'em-up setting, another third uses a third-person perspective and the last third has the player navigate through a series of hoops.
Tac/Scan was brought to the Atari 2600 in 1983. This port suffers considerably and removes the third-person segments. Tac/Scan has recently been included as part of Sega Mega Drive Collection on the Sony PlayStation 2.
