A forum thread about an obscure Atari 800 shareware game and the search for the registered version that was presumed lost. The developer appears and gives a lesson on 6502 game engine programming techniques - and the harsh realities of the shareware market in 1985.

This was known as gauntletak. Not the 4 person super hit of the same name. Wikipedia for this: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;en.wikipedia.org&#x2F;wiki&#x2F;Gauntletak" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;en.wikipedia.org&#x2F;wiki&#x2F;Gauntletak</a>
