Color Blast is a space shoot-em-up, with a rather strange perspective - you are driving forward with a tank like vehicle down a highway, towards a city in the distance. You move left and right, shooting all of the aliens swarming at the top, while dodging their shots. You can't move all the way to the left or right, so aliens can be temporarily just beyond your grasp. A rather unique perspective for a basic shoot-em-up.
