Short: Really old BASIC games collection. Author: Various BASIC programmers. Uploader: VentziStudent usa net (Ventzislav Tzvetkov) Type: game/misc Requires: dev/basic/Cursor.lha or AmigaBASIC. Architecture: m68k-amigaos Old BASIC Games -------------------------------- This is a collection of BASIC games from the early days of hobby computing. No,the games era didn't began with the Doom or Wolf3D like most of the current gamers are used to belive. Most of the games here are from the 70ties.So if you wonder what our parents used to play in these times take a look at these games and feel the nostalgia. Also there are some bonus programs. The games are text-only (no graphics!) and include many classic BASIC games of the era. The games will run on most versions of Microsoft BASIC, including AmigaBASIC, MBASIC, BASICA, GW-BASIC etc. Most of them can be compiled with Cursor too. The programs were found scattered among several CP/M software archives and appear to have been part of a disk-based collection of BASIC games. Originally supplied in tokenised MBASIC form, eachgame has been converted to pure ASCII to allow its use by most Microsoft Basic interpreters.
