DEBRO Posted May 19, 2018 Author Share Posted May 19, 2018 Hi there, Anything interesting hiding in there? Not really. The only thing I noticed was if you press SELECT you can't move the blinds again until you press RESET. No big deal since this was a demo or not a released product. It uses David Crane's "signature" code structure so it looks like is early work. In my opinion, if Atari wanted to go after them for taking trade secrets; they could have reverse-engineered their early products and referenced the horizontal positioning routine. They come from early work at Atari. Similar routines have been used in Air Sea Battle, Basketball, and Canyon Bomber. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JeremiahK Posted May 19, 2018 Share Posted May 19, 2018 Funny thing is, Bob Whitehead literally invented the Venetian blinds technique. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
