Treasure Quest
Not long ago I had a hankering to see if anyone had archived an old Atari 800 game by the name of Treasure Quest. I was happy to discover that it had been archived! You can find the original manual here and (on another page) an image of the tape that can be loaded in a good Atari emulator.
With nostolgic fervor, I decided it would be a fun project to convert the game from the original BASIC program into a web program that can be run with javascript, and am happy to report that project is complete. The original was split into an introduction program that I did not convert, and the game itself, which I did.
You can refer to the manual above for an introduction to the game. For a quick reference in-game, I have added the "HELP" command. I also modified the CHART command to display the map of the Blood Straights.
More details to add later, incl. comments on the original program, a list of bugs fixed, and how I structured the javascript program to emulate the appearance of the ATARI.
