Henry Sopko |
Arcadian, Vol 6, Pg. 96 |
"Space Ape is a version of the ladder-climbing game. The object is to get to the top of the
platform when the ape is located. You must jump over barrels to avoid getting hit, using the
trigger. There are three barrels in the way all the time. To climb the ladder, you must be
directly in line with it. JY controls your direction, but don't fall off the ledge!" - Arcadian |

while holding left/right to steer them. Read the included text file for quite a few additional comments about
this game lifted from the Yahoo message group. |
