Markham is a 1983 horizontally scrolling shooter video game developed and published by Sun Electronics for arcades. It was only released in Japan in December 1983.

Gameplay
The player controls a fighter jet which is instructed to destroy research stations in Antarctica. The jet is equipped with ammunition and missiles, which can be combined to defeat enemy objects. Unlike other scrolling shooters, the angle while shooting can be changed by tilting, increasing the complexity of the gameplay while making it easier to shoot enemies moving in erratic ways.
