Hi all. I am trying to track down a particular BASIC game programming book for the PCjr.
All I remember is it had about five or six BASIC "arcade" game programs that were listed out (line numbers and all) that you simply typed in from the book. I believe most of them utilized the joystick. Also, I believe one of the games was called Arena or Athena or something, and one of the games was missile command. I believe the book cover was a solid color like red, blue or purple, but I could be wrong.
I had such a fun time typing in and playing those games when I was a young kid (multiple times because I think I was in cartridge basic and couldn't save to disk) and for nostalgic reasons I would love to get my hands on that book. If I could find out what the title is and who the author was, perhaps I could find someone on ebay selling it...
Thanks!
Phillip
