More thoughts...



I'm still considering whether Arkanoid might be doable, but I haven't had luck isolating the disk i/o routines.

I tend to think of myself as a "monkey coder" - very inefficient, barely skilled and not particularly capable of what I set out to do. It isn't that what I do is difficult or complicated, but any surprise is usually that anyone even considered doing it. I've got a lot of half-assed stuff lying around that almost works, and it annoys me.

One of my unfinished tools is called RDOS Manager. I never finished it because it did what I needed and my questionable skills were needed elsewhere, but it filled a hole in functionality which Ciderpress doesn't provide - creation of and write access to RDOS disk images. (I can release the unfinished code, I suppose...)

My halfassed hack of Lode Runner is still slightly broken, in that I need to either fix or disable the high score table code.

I got over my head before I even tried to do anything significant toward porting Dr. Mario to the ][. :<
