+CharlieChaplin Posted November 22, 2013 Share Posted November 22, 2013 Here you go. Surf's Up.xex Well, this file version has only two of the original 3 levels, yes it is missing one level !! Thus, I did send Homesoft the original bootdisk-version and he created a full file-version with all 3 levels, available here: http://www.mushca.com/f/atari/index.php?dl=402 -Andreas Koch. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snicklin Posted November 22, 2013 Share Posted November 22, 2013 How was this game never a commercial game? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+CharlieChaplin Posted November 24, 2013 Share Posted November 24, 2013 Well, Surf`s Up once was a commercial game - released as freeware by one of the authors later (along with a description of the game and an explanation that it is freeware now for all to enjoy). In the freeware version you can see the original vendor/publisher logo for a glimpse of a second, then the text "presents... Surf`s Up" appears; while in the commercial version the vendor/publisher logo was fully visible... -Andreas Koch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gilsaluki Posted May 28, 2020 Share Posted May 28, 2020 Dug this game out again. I have had it for years. The graphics are great. Music is constant....constant. I cannot for the life of me figure out how to play this game (yes, I printed the instructions), I wipe out almost every time on the backside of the waves. Anyone?

Gunstar Posted May 28, 2020 Share Posted May 28, 2020 Yes, it's a hard game, hard enough to make you want to throw your joystick, but don't, because it's also addictive and makes you want to give it one more go and try and master those waves. It's been a favorite of mine for years, but I still suck at it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I *think* this was a Jeffery Stanton creation. He showed it off at one of our User Group meetings in about 1985. It wowed the crowd at its brilliance. He went on to write the Graphics and Arcade game design book that, along with Atari Roots and De-Re (and the Tom Hudson Analog) Tutorials can turn any decent basic programmer into a full fledged hardcore 8bit game developer for the Atari computers Edited May 28, 2020 by jefffulton typos Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gilsaluki Posted May 28, 2020 Share Posted May 28, 2020 It took 20 years, but I FINALLY figured out the movements on Level One (surfing over the big waves, avoiding the octopus). Haven't figured out Level Two screen, surfing along the wave near the white caps. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
