Kangaroo Atari Program Exchange1983Jim Leiterman wrote a Symbolic Reverse Assembler (turns assembly code into fully documented source code) and used it to port the Atari 5200 version of Kangaroo to Atari 8-bit computer. But management wasn't interested. He sent his polished port over to APX who was and the game saw public release. But then Atari management suddenly wanted to publish a computer version. So a different department made a different port from scratch. Leiterman's version can be distinguished but the red strawberries, not purple, and other quality details. labelimageminimize

Herbert AMC Verlag1988Two ducks, Herbert and Oscar, race to their stall to impress their chicks (girlfriends) and not be made a meal of (if they run out of time). In the way are thorny plants, witches, and warriors armed with swords (they're on a farm, aber natürlich). Oh, and the stall is lock requiring many gems be collected to unlock (aber natürlich). Note, Herbert and Oscar are able to gain extra lives or invulnerability powerups by lay eggs (aber natürlich) in nests they find.***
