Re: Montezuma's revenge programming technique

[Jeff Thomas <a2forever@usa.net>]

I have the original (not pirated copy) of this game, together with the
original instruction sheet, which boots into DOS 3.3. It's likely that the
number of sectors on the disk may have been manipulated to make it appear
that there's nothing there - years ago, I did a similar trick myself (as a
part of 'copy protection', along with other methods).

I don't know if any Apple II-oriented 'arcade game' tutorials are available
on the internet.

As for books, my personal preference would be a book titled: "Apple Graphics
and Arcade Game Design" by Jeffrey Stanton, published in 1982 by The Book
Company. Best bet trying E-bay for a copy.

I hope that helps...

Let me know how you got on!
