Little Brick Out (Y-Axis Mod)

[KP <kjpmail@gmail.com>]

For years, I have been annoyed by the fact that in order to play
Little Brick Out with a joystick (as the game was obviously written
with paddles in mind), one has to turn the joystick 90 degrees counter-
clockwise.

Here is a simple mod that will change the axis to the vertical axis
and make "up" on the joystick be "up" on the screen, and "down" on the
joystick be "down" on the screen:

LOAD LITTLE BRICK OUT
20 Q = PDL(1)
22 IF Q > 128 THEN Q = Q-((Q-128)*2) : GOTO 26
24 IF Q < 128 THEN Q = 128+((128-Q)*2) : GOTO 26
26 IF ABS(Q-OQ) < 5 * SGN(Q) THEN RETURN
