Well, if you liked Rocky's Boots, then you need to check out the book
"Bebop Bytes Back: An Unconventional Guide to Computers". Authors: Clive "Max" Maxfield and Alvin Brown. Here's a link to it at Amazon.com http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/0965193403/o/qid=943632071/sr=8-3/102 -9727916-1496831 complete with many reviews. It's a 5 star book (top rating on Amazon). Read the reviews to see what others have thought. It's Rocky's Boot's on steroids. Here's a link to the author's website http://www.maxmon.com/default.htm. It looks like he's released a few more books since Bebop Bytes Back. Check it out, it's a book that did not get
the exposure it should have. I remember when I went hunting for it a few years back and nobody carried it. I had to special order it from a local store. Thanks to the Internet, it's a slam dunk to get these hard to find books now. Enjoy!

That was it. I ran into it in college, when all I knew was APL and Lisp.
It
helped me with very basic electronics. Cool game. :-)

I worked on it back then. I wrote all the backstory and journal blurbs and designed the levels as well as game progression. Honestly, a quirky little title but a very solid game.
