Even form Apple's FTP - (now gone, > but two years ago they had 1000's of old Apple-2 games. Well, Tutanchamun was ported and marketed on Sharp MZ-800 as well (but since I did not do the port and have not owned such a beast, I don't have the code for this available). Apart from that, everything I wrote ran on a Nasom ][. Apart from the Tutanchamun (that used the 384x256x3 AVC graphics card), everything else ran on the 48x16 ASCII display. There were of course a bunch of various Basic games, the infamous car race, various system software and various odds and ends. There was also various software not written by myself. Most of it, if at all, is on MC tapes. > Apple-2 games are still the funest. exp. Alien Rain and Rescue on Fractilus > ;-) Rescue on Fractalus is an original Lucasfilm Games on Atari 800, and it is written to use its video hardware. Absolutely addictive is "Ball Blazer", another Lucasfilm on Atari 800. Most emulators will probably have performance problems: this one utilized Atari hardware absolutely to its max... I know that it was impossible not to torture the joystick until it almost broke and your hands hurt, even though ratio told you the joystick was digital, just on and off. -- David Kastrup, Kriemhildstr. 15, 44793 Bochum Email: David.Kastrup@t-online.de
