Alien Downpour Snacking On Software2017Shoot the various enemies. Rescue spaced hostages that the enemies through at the player's ship. Don't shoot the hostages. Some enemies can hover in the player's way to prevent them from moving too far left or right. When this happens, the player has limited choices to dodge, pickup hostages, and aim at enemies. You can shoot enemy shots to make both disappear (yah, lots of 8-bit games did that). When you die, the debris of your exploding spacecraft can collide with other elements of the game. Including hostages. Apple II Elabelminimizeminimize
Alien Rain  Brøderbund (Starcraft)1980It was actually called Galaxian, and later renamed to avoid legal action by Atari... An enchanced version called Alien Typhoon, released the following year, features more aliens, but also more slow down. Generally considered better than Atarisoft's official Galaxian port.

Apple Barrel  CDS Software;SoftWareHouse1979Apple Barrel is a collection 25 applications including 9 games and a terrible instruction manual that attempts to be more entertaining than the games (that's not a very high bar to begin with). The manual includes apocryphal information. It comes on disk and cassette and the manual has complete listings of each application's code with hand written notes for the numerous errors in the printing. At the beginning of the manual the copyright is explained in fine print and includes an unusual [b]no profitable use clause[/b]. Some of the applications are utilities designed for profitable use. Later in the manual in the midst of poor humor, there is a long explanation that encourages users to modify the code and include the code in their derivative works. This long explanation makes no mention of copyright or profitable use. Taken together, there is a coherent copyright statement to be discerned that is not contradictory in itself, but it takes more effort than should be necessary. Because of this effort and the profitable use for tools clearly designed for it, this game is tagged as having a vague license. I have a suspicion, and no proof, that everything on the disk is actually Public Domain that the publisher has claimed as their own.

Apple Barrel II is a different version of the package by a different publisher. It differs in the software it provides but not the games. Although, I cannot verify the games are not updated in some way, the same games provided by both packages. Thus, this entry applies to both.

Awari  Softape (Creative Computing)1978Awari is a digital version of the game Kalah. In the game the player must beat the AI opponent. In turns players can pick up seeds in one of the "houses" in their control. Seeds that are picked up have to be redistributed by placing one in each adjacent house in counter-clockwise fashion. If the final seed falls in the player's scoring house the player is awarded an additional turn. If the final seed falls into an empty house owned by the player, that seed and any seeds in the opposing house are added to the scoring house of the player. The game ends when one player no longer has any seeds in his houses. The player with the most seeds in his scoring house wins.***[media=youtube]5YsSaqx1pF8[/media] Apple II Elabelminimizesubject

Battle Cruiser Action Mytopia Gameware Institute1981[Mytopia Gameware Institute is] A game studio founded in the late '70s with the notion that a computer can play a game just like the player.

It didn't need to cheat, and with the correct programming can even outplay a human.

They finally overcame this hurdle in 1981 with the critically acclaimed game "Battle Cruiser Action"
