Sorry to dig up this decade-old post, but I've been searching high and low on the Internet for these very files. Especially Break Out which I remember playing with a fondness on a Philly BBS. I even tracked down Shem himself, but he didn't even remember writing this game until I reminded him :) and of course his code copies are long gone.

I also. If I can find these games I will put them online for play. If anyone can help, it'd be greatly appreciated!
