TEXAS_JOE Posted March 27, 2012 Share Posted March 27, 2012 Using the joystick, we go left and right and pick up falling paratroopers before the sharks eat them. Various levels of play. I think I've seen this game before on a Commodore Vic-20 and C64, although I can't remember the name of it on those computers. It's a good fun game, written for Extended Basic. I wish I knew the author's name I would have credited him/her on this thread!CHUTES.zip Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lucien2 Posted March 27, 2012 Share Posted March 27, 2012 Nice graphics. Some kind of "Game & Watch" style. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TEXAS_JOE Posted March 27, 2012 Author Share Posted March 27, 2012 Yeah, it is. The game on the Vic that was similar was called Catch a Trooper or something, if memory serves correct. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Ksarul Posted April 1, 2012 Share Posted April 1, 2012 (edited) It may actually be an early piece of commercial TI software. I believe it may have been from Norton Software or possibly Ehninger Associates. A game of this name shows up in early Tenex and Unisource catalogs.

boxpressed Posted April 1, 2012 Share Posted April 1, 2012 Wow. I remember playing this BITD. I don't remember any details, but I haven't thought about this game in 30 years! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
