Atari's 1984 unreleased laserdisc arcade game - Battlestar Galactica

Laserdisc is something I've never been able to emulate.  Near as I can tell though, they work with 1 very long and erratic video file and a bunch of software that jumps around in that video as needed.  When I said I needed seizure medication, it was meant as a joke.  But I'm pretty sure that all laserdisc games are the same like that.

Some were better than others. I don't know for sure but I bet scaling down the images for compatibility with the monitors used to display then probably had a part in the noticeable and oft seizure-inducing flicker seen with some of the games. The Bluth games (Dragon's Lair series and Space Ace) seemed to have more polish and less noticeable flicker than others.
