Rescue on Fractalus! Helmet
42 years ago I got to be in an #ILM shoot for the box and manual of my soon to be released #LucasfilmGames Atari 800 game, #RescueOnFractalus On the cover I’m the running pilot about to be rescued, those are also my hands/knees in the cockpit. #retrogaming #spaceship

Rescue on Fractalus! pilot helmet, modified with model tank turrets on the side. Also a lightsaber and Kyber crystals, a Lucasfilm mug.
Me in orange flight gear holding my helmet, 1983.
The image features the cover art for the video game "Rescue on Fractalus!" It depicts a cockpit view with a space pilot in a red suit visible through the windshield. The background shows dramatic rocky terrain and colorful explosions.
A vintage video game back cover for "Rescue on Fractalus!" featuring an unconscious pilot in a futuristic cockpit. The text highlights the game's theme of a pilot in peril and challenges players to save him. The background includes a smoky landscape and game screenshot.
