[Coco] Dungeons of Daggorath Program Manual

[Andrew]

I was expecting something nice, but OH WOW!

It looks almost "print ready"! Like you could almost take it down to a 
print shop and have them run it off with heavy stock, and have a "real" 
manual in front of you!

It looks so good, it doesn't look like a scan at all!

Amazing work! It truly shows it as a "labor of love"; I am sorry you 
weren't able to play the game as a kid, and that you can't find time 
now. You owe it to yourself to try it out; consider taking the time as a 
self-thank you for your efforts.

I assume you know about the porting project (to the PC)?:

Don't look too deep at that page though, plenty of spoilers!

Thank you for this gift...
