@TeamRocketReviews totally agree. By 1985/6 I think the Atari 800 had been deserted. Pity. Last top quality main stream game being International Karate maybe
@dreamcastII Honestly, the last really great game made for the Atari was Into The Eagles Nest in 1988. Commando from 1989 was good too, as was Draconus. Too bad. The Atari was good. Maybe not C64 level awesome, but it still was a solid system that should have lasted longer.
Never realised how the c64 version was so tailor made for using DLI's on the A8 for more colours. In fact so many games could have been augmented like this, when I think of all the games of the late nineties, where the screen has just 4 shades of the same colour, when the whole page is biuld up of character blocks. Crownland, Bomb Jack, etc show how it should have been done!
The Atari was a superb system considering how long before the commodore it was developed !

If only games like this could have came out during the commercial lifespan of the Atari, it might have lasted as long as the C64.

Is the music available for download at all? It's a nice take on the original C64 tune.

This is some great work. If only I could go back in time and give my boy self the finished product.
