Rescue on Fractalus was my favorite game of all time on the Atari 800!
You were the pilot of a rescue shuttle that had to pick up downed pilots.
The landscape was generated with fractal geometry, so it was infinitely
detailed.  The mission consisted of locating crashed pilots, landing,
powering down, and letting the pilots board.  Occasionally, enemy pilots
tried to destroy you ship by smashing the windscreen.  Totally cool game!
