Just found out about [Wayback] Lode Runner Web Game:
A HTML5 (CreateJS) remake of Lode Runner
I have played that way too much in my Apple ][ and //e days.
Hopefully I won’t be addicted to it as back in those days.
Just watching the demo mode is soooooo cool!
I remember designing my own lievens, then winning from the local Apple shop (Vlasveld Computers, which also had a country wide Apple magazine). Cool days!

This week, a mini-demo of the mini-assembler found inside Woz’ monitor inside Apple II Integer Basic.
CALL –151
F666G
You can find reconstructed sources in Jeff Tranter’s repo here:
https://github.com/jefftranter/6502/tree/master/asm/Apple%5D%5BMonitor
where we see credits to Steve Wozniak and Allen Baum. But in this oral history it seems the assembler was Baum’s work:
“Baum: So it was brute force, very simple and fit into 256 bytes if you already had the 256-byte disassembler.”

Anyhow, one page of code – or two – is very impressive!For more info, try searching for F666G! (We wonder at this memorable address – the Apple I price was $666.)
