G/+let1

This website contains an archive of files for the Acorn Electron, BBC Micro, Acorn Archimedes, Commodore 16 and Commodore 64 computers, which Dominic Ford has rescued from his private collection of floppy disks and cassettes.

Some of these files were originally commercial releases in the 1980s and 1990s, but they are now widely available online. I assume that copyright over them is no longer being asserted. If you own the copyright and would like files to be removed, please contact me.

File contents
I found this game on a disc which was donated by a school. In its original
form the listing was very long, the play slow and it was in MODE7.

I have whittled down the listing by removing a lot of unnecessary dross, a
lot of variables which did nothing and most of the MODE7 stuff. I have
also introduced a graduated speed which gets faster as you play. The game
works in MODE6

The game is very simple and quite a lot of fun.
