Basic Source Code - elpiggio - 03-02-2025

I'm wondering if any of those Games we used to love on the Microbee compilation disks are in Basic ?

Something like Cannibals & Missionaries or Robot Man ?

I remember 'cracking' the 5 1/4 disks I borrowed off someone in the 90s but I've forgotten how I did it.

Are there any already-extracted copies of the Basic Source for these around?

I have a copy of the Microbee Basic manual and thought I'd delve into it a bit.

Cannibals & Missionaries is a Basic game but Robot Man is Machine Code as are most of the action games. Cannibals & Missionaries is on the Microbee Demo Disk so difficult to extract directly. Viper is a Basic arcade game but has a bit of imbedded machine code. Its on both the arcade_1_ss80 & games_9_ss80 disks so can be easily extracted. Most of the Educational programs are in Basic.
