Montalago and Planetary Travel

OVERVIEW

Montalago and Planetary Travel are among the first games that I ever created (1983-1985 or thereabouts.) During Middle School my father purchased a Franklin Ace computer (Apple II compatible). With the help of a few simplistic BASIC books and my own ambition, I soon began to program my own games.

Montalago was a first-person dungeon and dragons style game featuring, believe it or not, GR graphics.

Planetary Travel was an interplanetary trading game. It was text-based but it featured a much more sophisticated game engine than Montalago.

ROLE

I did not have the luxury of collaborating with a team for these games. I was the sole programmer, designer, and artist on these early creations.

VIEW THE WORK

Unfortunately the games only ran on the Apple II. If I can figure out a way to get the programs off of 5.25" floppies, I could post them for you emulator fans.
