What is the name of this video game?

Very old school arcade game.

There is a big rectangle. Your goal is to try to capture space inside this rectangle. For example, if you bisect the rectangle in half, you have captured 50% of the space.

While you try to capture space by running through the middle of the rectangle and "sealing off" sections (which then turn a different color) , little star-like shapes run along the perimeter trying to chase you. You have to avoid running in to them.

Once you get to a certain percentage (I forgot what percentage - let's say 75%) of the board captured, you are on to the next round.

Anyone?

..and I want to say it starts with an X or Z, but not entirely sure. It was out in the early 80s or so

Screw that, it's all about GALAGA!!!

You are thinking of Qix.

You can play the flash version online here.

That's it! Carny - my money was on you (in my head, of course) as being the one to come through with the answer :-)

Thank you.
