[Coco] [Color Computer] New Game

[Tom Seagrove]

Nice job...I would add a "cls" at the end to clean up the screen when
exiting though.  I am sure it would have been accepted by Falsoft or T&D
back in the day as well.

Roger Taylor's "Jeweled" has inspired me.

I've created, or attempted to create to the best of my reverse
engineering ability, a "Bejeweled"-like game in basic for the Colour 
Computer.  It's pretty fast given the limitations of basic, but it 
does show how fast you can get basic to fly on a coco.  I would be
really interested in hearing beta testing comments on it.  I'm not 
that familiar with the original, so any advice would be much 
appreciated.

It's available on my JGGAMES.DSK and is called "JEWELER.BAS."  My 
disk image can be found at the bottom of my software page:

P.S. If you will be running it on a coco 2 you will have to list the 
code and make the appropriate changes to the high speed pokes 
(begining and end of program).  It also works on the MC-10 (just 
change MC=1024 to MC=16384)
