[Coco] new CoCo games

[Aaron Banerjee]

I like the idea for your "Microsloth" game.  If I can get it to run on my
computer(s)  (biggest coco = coco 3 w/ 128k, disk drive, RSDOS), I'd love
to get a new game.

Speaking of coco games, it's been years since I added to my collection.
Is there an Archon game for the coco?
