Is that a stylised version of the original Elite game there in the screenshot? It doesn't look like the real game. Strange. Maybe Atari wasn't allowed to use that in their marketing?

This seems to match this demo from Eclipse: https://www.atarimania.com/pgesoft.awp?version=31698

Oh yeah good find!

It really seems inspired by Elite though.
