[Coco] [Color Computer] New Game

[Diego Barizo]

It has already been accepted for the 2008 Asimov Awards :-)
Jim has been the biggest collaborator, and keeps proving that you don't 
have to know every little detail about the GIME and 6809 to write great 
fun programs.
Like Roger said, visit his site. There are many great programs there.
