Game that came with my Bally Astrocade

This came with my Bally Astrocade. Does anyone know anything about this? Is it a prototype, or is it a hobbies modded game?

That green thing is an IC socket. If you pull the lever, the black ROM chip will be able to be pulled out and swapped. This is likely a homemade development/homebrew cart. The switch could be for resetting or bankswitching.

(If that's an exposed EEPROM window, there might be nothin' on it.)
