This is Skiing for the Atari 2600, made by its first third-party developer Activision. Over the years I've become a bigger and bigger fan of the first generation of Activision developers. I think their game design for the Atari 2600 is perfectly suited to that machine. The graphics are simple and colorful, the gameplay very accessible and easy to understand, and the games are just darn fun, even today. I have seriously considered collecting a complete Activision collection for the Atari for those reasons. Skiiing is one of the earliest examples of this.
