+OLD CS1 Posted May 22, 2021 Share Posted May 22, 2021 Stumbled across this tonight. https://www.applefritter.com/content/compute-magazine-type-programs I was looking for Hickory, Dickory, Dock as I based my TI-99/4A conversion upon the Apple 2 screen in the original COMPUTE! article. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
[ZK] Posted December 18, 2021 Share Posted December 18, 2021 WOW! Huge thanks Captain Breakout for putting the COMPUTE! type-in games together. When I was a kid I typed in Powerball and it never worked (which seems impossible since there's a checksum) and for years I've been trying to figure out an easy way to type it in again. Now I don't have to! I downloaded the disk image and was able to run it in the ApplIIjs emulator online. This is so great! Thank you again! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaptainBreakout Posted December 18, 2021 Author Share Posted December 18, 2021 Sure! This was a passion of mine too. Thanks for reviving the thread. There's a few I've been meaning to make dsk images of (and do the title screens and instructions and all that) and this might prompt me to get started again. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frozone212 Posted January 17, 2022 Share Posted January 17, 2022 When canyon runner says to hit both keys in Applewin, what do i press? The emulator doesn't have the ability to redefine keys and I primarily use arrows or wasd Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iamgroot Posted January 17, 2022 Share Posted January 17, 2022 The only time an Apple II can recognize 2 keypresses at the same time is with the CONTROL, OPEN-APPLE, CLOSED-APPLE keys, in which you hold one of these keys, or a combination of these keys down and tap an alpha character.

The Usotsuki Posted January 17, 2022 Share Posted January 17, 2022 And pretty much every emulator is going to implement the Apple keys as left and right Alt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hot dog! Somehow I missed this one... thanks for pointing it out (and the link too -that was fun)! I'll type it in and release it this week if I can. It looks pretty short.

Keatah Posted April 6, 2023 Share Posted April 6, 2023 I always liked in-depth reviews of new systems. Was like experiencing the future of computing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iamgroot Posted April 6, 2023 Share Posted April 6, 2023 (edited) That's the trouble with getting old. We have seen everything, heard everything and now we know everything. That and anything new coming out in new technology, no matter how complicated, we understand how it works instantly.

bradhig1 Posted April 8, 2023 Share Posted April 8, 2023 sadly no sound with the last warrior. Not the first time as there are several Compute games for Apple with no sound. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
