The turtle pace speed was pretty good, but I had cheating in mind. The X and O could move at normal speed while the text was slowed down so that I could target and hit it. :P Are the movements were tied together? It seemed that each object moved at the same speed and is updated as one. Is it possibl...

People still use floppy disks? :devil: I haven't seen any floppy discs for sale in years though I haven't looked very hard. Ok. it was just a curiosity. I wasn't sure if floppys in general expired after a long period of time or whether other factors came into play The answer is both; the media will...

Re: developing new retro games
Thinking about making a retro game and was wondering... If you're interested in making games, then you should take a stab at them whenever you get the chance... the medium isn't important, but the experience is. I like to try the old school games at any stage... it's fun to see how others tackle ch...

I remember seeing OPM in my local Electronics Boutique (gamestop now?) store; I think I purchased four issues at the store before getting a 2 yr sub back in the late 90s, so the per issue cost wasn't that bad.
