In this video I take a look at Death Watch by Brian and Marian Clark, which appeared as the first ever fulllength type-in listing game in the very first edition of the Micro User from March 1983! This arcade shooter took just 159 lines of code to get up and running, showcased some decent PROC-based programming and with a nice bit of in-line 6502 assembly code thrown in for good measure. Not a bad entry into the hall of typein listing fame!
