Here we go, a nice shiny README file for those who need it.

I guess it's already ready already. And yeah, I'm okay with you distributing it... like I said, I wasn't planning to get rich from this game, because that's just not going to happen. As for a README, I made full-blown instructions for two of the versions of this game. If I knew what a Dick Smith/Cre...

Whew! That's a relief! Very happy to hear that.

Should I infer from this that the joystick still doesn't work properly? Nanochess modified the compiler to address this issue.

I dunno, I went off on a tangent there.

Some timing changes and the option to press S to advance through the game's pauses are included in this one. I'm very happy with this now! Plays great in the FunnyMU emulator. Don't bother with the joysticks for a game like this unless you absolutely must. There, Australians. I hope this is penance ...

Okay, okay, okay! I think I've got this. Give it the old college spin and see if it works out for you. The game's designed to be played with the controller in your hand (vertical) or set in the console, with the player jabbing at letter keys (horizontal). Advancing to the next level requires you to ...

Oh really? Well, in that case, I'll have to make a test program to see if I can figure this out. I can convert these hex values to decimals without any difficulty, right? My mind doesn't think in base 16.

Thanks for the info, by the way!

Like I said earlier, I can't access the keyboard with CVBasic... I can't even use PEEK to read it because the compiler doesn't play nice with the BIOS. I'd do that if such an option was available to me- it is an option in the MSX version, since the CONT statement was modified to read its numeric key...

I don't think CVBasic allows you to access I/O through the BIOS. I attempted that with some other system (MSX, I think) and had no luck. I'll probably have to wait for Nanochess to expand his compiler and offer direct access to the keypad... and I'm hesitant to bug the guy about it, since he's alrea...
