my recent CoCo developments...

I have recently released "Follow Me", a clone of the 80's-era 'Simon'
game targeted at the Tandy Color Computer. The game can be controlled
using the 'W', 'E', 'S', and 'D' keys to choose the colors/tones
for playback. Source code (for the mamou assembler) is available,
as are a LOADM'able BIN file and a CLOADM'able wav file for playback
on a computer (or cell phone, etc).

The code supports both the CoCo and Dragon keyboards. I tested the
game on my Tano Dragon, where it seems to run as well as on my TDP-100
(i.e. CoCo1). It should work on the CoCo3 as well, but I have not
confirmed that.

FWIW, the game also supports my (afaik) one-of-a-kind rotary controller
for the CoCo. Read farther back in the blog referenced above for
more information about that!

Thanks,

John
