    AtariAge forum user Glurk brings us a version of the classic «Bowling» (Atari, 1979), for the Atari XL/XE series computers.


    The original, written by Larry Kaplan for the Atari 2600 console, is a version of the sport of bowling for one or two players. Each game consists of 10 turns, with the player having two throws to knock down the most bowling pins.


    "I found a really nice disassembly (code) on Github. So I spent about a day and changed all the hardware registers; added the input (instruction); added the Avery "Phaeron" Lee sound driver and came up with this," he detailed.in the forum
