Whilst under the specific circumstance where Rat-Man has just demolished a rat and the walking animation has not yet updated it does indeed look like he is in posession of a horse cock, in fact it's just a slightly truncated frame of the pisspoor 2-frame walking animation

That or he is about to abuse an unconscious rat

I miss the VIC20. I still have one upstairs that I bought of Ebay and have never used, along with originals of most of the early Llamasoft stuff.

I liked the VIC - first love, and all. When I bought it I couldn't afford a C2N so had to type in games from a book, and do it all again the next day.

Ah, bliss..............

Another top read.

Thank you for sharing again.

Sounds kinda like a cross between Cat'n'Mouse and Uni Wars.

In Cat'n'Mouse (left, colours are wrong in MAME) you shoot the mice as they come down from the top of the screen. If they get to the bottom, they chew through the floor and then try to jump up and catch your tail, which costs you a life. The mice sometimes free eggs, which bounce along the bottom, effectively attacking you diagonally. And it looks a bit like Centipede, which might have attracted you towards it. In Uni Wars (right), a multi-stage Galaxian derivative, enemies drop little paratroops who patrol underneath you, occasionally jabbing their spears up through the floor in a similar-looking vein.

The bottom bit definitely came from Uni Wars (there was the Japanese version of that in the Hind's Head in Aldermaston village), but I never saw cat'n'mouse. So I think the top half is probably just something I made up.

I'd pay for a published book of this stuff

I believe I was born 15 years too late. I got into computers and everything in the mid 90's but my first computer was a BBC B. I mastered BASIC on BBC B and electron. Awww, by then they were all out and it was getting harder to get hold of stuff, this was pre-ebay days hehe.

Anyway, great work Jeff. I've only been reading since part 7. I sat down and read all 7 parts in one sitting, was a really good read. I wasnt even alive in those days or at least a baby, but I think it was the good old days

hehe

Please take a published book seriously. I'm sure someone will print it

Do we have any pics? If so, we could throw together a PDF.

We're going to put together an iLiad-friendly PDF of everything so far soon

Yep it's coming out nicely and I quite like the A5 format, it's very readable
two pages at time at 100% zoom using a 1280x1024 screen and acrobat
and very nicely readble on the iLiad
