--> I was always impressed with how Airheart could manage those
smooth dips and turns. Much better than games released years
later. Of course, the `ocean' was a bit on the skimpy side;
but it still was s-m-o-o-t-h at `moving' around on screen.
Drol always took my fancy, as well. Another one I got a charge
out of and was in the class of non-violent games that I could
let my kids play with (and I played too!) was Spare Change.
One of the niftiest game ideas I ever saw on the A2 platform.
