First in basic, later in machine code. My two-player "Tank" in basic was very playable. Thrilled to see you included Sea-Wolf, my version was called "Damn The Torpedoes". Scott Adams? (a gaming company) declined to buy it but they did buy a friends version of Space Invaders. <br /><br />I've tried game emulation, but when you can add a quarter by pressing '5' it seems to lose something.Oldscothttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12480127668644974981noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2528812496347938474.post-20539457508755018172016-09-02T07:00:13.761-07:002016-09-02T07:00:13.761-07:00I rocked on Galaga.

Your parents timed it right, LOL!Debra She Who Seekshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01845703092794695023noreply@blogger.com
