IIRC, you controlled a cloud that could move up and down the screen and shoot enemies on the side of the screen.  The general game play was a bit like space invaders turned on the side - but with no barriers, different enemies, etc.  A crappy game, but we are talking about preservation, not preservation of just the best stuff.

Hmm, that sounds an awful lot like Thunder Bombs from Penguin Software (1982). Perhaps that could be it?  There's a copy on Asimov in the file-based games section.
