"Easy Does It"

[modernwizard]

I downloaded DOSBox, an emulator allowing a user to play old games on a new computer, and installed it. Then I downloaded Jumpman 1.0 from The Jumpman Project, and then I played my favoritest computer game ever. Basically Jumpman involves jumping a little dude around a jungle gym, collecting pellets in order to win the level. Obstacles include flying white bombs, vampire bats, evil robots, etc. We got this game for our Commodore 64 shortly after its release in 1984 and we spent many joyous hours attempting to master it. In order to fully enjoy this game, I need a joystick...Hmmm...

I loved playing that game myself.

One of my favorite games was actually a Commodore 64, Drol. World's cutest robot (pre-Wall-E) dodging levels of flying swords and daggers, and man- (robot?) eating plants. :D
