Cosmic Camouflage is a computer game for the BBC Micro and Acorn Electron. It was released in 1988 as the sequel to Acornsoft's Meteors. The game idea is based on arcade game Asteroids. The player controls a spaceship in order to avoid and destroy asteroids.

It expanded on the Asteroids concept by introducing different types of asteroids and enemies, and a limited use camouflage function that allowed you to pass through asteroids and enemies.

It was available on the compilation Play It Again Sam 4, along with Frak!, Spellbinder and either Grand Prix Construction Set (BBC only) or Guardian (Electron only). [1]
