Adv550 downloads

This is Adv550 built from Dave Platt's Honeywell A-code source dated 18 Sep 1984.

Built on 21 Sep 2003, using Mike Arnautov's A-code kernel 11.61.

Notes:

  1. Unlike other implementations of adv550, this version is build from virtually unmodified Platt's A-code source, and preserves all text formatting features of the original. Reconstructed sources of Platt's original A-code system are also available.
  2. Since the game is written in A-code, it can use MS or Linux window enviroments, instead of having to be run in a console window. Pre-built executables are therefore provided both in the basic scrolling version, and in the windowed version. A separate document describes command line options available for all A-code games.
  3. Depending on your browser setting, you may need to hold down the "shift" key while clicking on a link below, in order to download the relevant file, instead of viewing it. Viewing binary files is not much fun :-)
