I'm curious... did anyone figure out how to use the "Joystick + Keyboard" control feature? This was designed to recreate the arcade (2 joystick) experience really well, but it was really hard to communicate how to use it...

@Akira625 Thanks! I wrote this in high school. It is one of my proudest achievements still... :)

@nviso209 Well, that was the point! It was DEATH! :P But yeah, not much to work with a 1-bit sound toggle and no sound card... :)

This game could destroy an apple ii! Had it in 86 and laughed b/c the sound was sh*T compared to the NES titles I was playing at the time! I guess it was satisfactory but still the death tones make my head HURT!

This one and Conan were my favorites as a kid! Damn this brings back memories! :D:D:D:D

This is the first time seeing Robotron 2084 on the Apple II. I must say it's quite faithful to the arcade, with some brilliantly unique video effects thrown in for good measure.

@dirtchew: No, it is not due to RF, but the graphics circuits. And if they didn't emulate that, some games might not look right. The bleeding on text only shows up in Graphics mode. Not in Text mode. Otherwise, apps like Appleworks would've been a disaster.
@datacipher: Well you COULD fire in a different direction from moving, but it was clumsy. The other joystick button changed the direction when you pressed it.
