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.

BOUNCE INSTRUCTIONS
The aim of Bounce is to get two small blue balls to collide
with each other, while avoiding spikes, which are deadly to
touch, and various other traps placed around the levels. You may
achieve this by placing blocks around the levels which deflect
the balls, and removing other blocks which are blocking your
path. Each block that you place on the level costs you 50
credits, so you must be careful that you do not run out of money.
If you remove a block from one of the levels, you get 10 credits
back, and so it may help you to "eat" as many of the blocks on
the levels as you can before the balls collide. Be careful that
the blocks you do "eat" will not be necessary for you to complete
the level though!
In Bounce you will find the following blocks:
BLOCKS - These look like two parallel lines with two diagonal
supports between them. These deflect the balls, but may easily be
removed.
SPIKES - These are deadly to touch, and you must avoid all
contact with your balls.
HARD BLOCKS - These look like solid red squares. They are similar
to blocks in that they deflect your ball, but may not be removed.
You my remove and place blocks by moving a curser around the
level. The keys to control this curser's movements may be
altered on the title screen, but the default keys are:
Z - Left
X - Right
K - Up
M - Down
L - Put block
<SPACE> - Remove block
There are 20 levels in total, all of which have been proven
to be possible. Even if you think you have got more money than
you could possibly need, you should still "eat" as many blocks as
possible, and not waste your credits, because the last few levels
need a lot of money to complete.
NOTE: Bounce uses all memory from &0A00 upwards. This will cause
the disc workspace to become corrupted, and so after you quit the
program you must reset the computer before performing any disc
operations. The use of page &0D00 may cause incompatibility with
some hardware, which you may have to remove before running the
game.
