"Fireworks"
The Tiny Arcade (Tom McConnell)
1982, Tape 103, Supertape I.


'Fireworks' shoots different colored fireworks into the air and there are some 
explosion sounds.

Lance Square says, "[I] had never seen the fireworks prog before. Simplistic by 
today's standards, but manages to get 4 (or more?) colours out of BASIC."

This was the very first Astrocade program ever digitally archived (July 4, 2002).

Subject: Fireworks program Archived (Happy Fourth!) 

Hey everyone!

Bob inspired me to wish all Astrocade user's a Happy Fourth of July.
How do I do that?  Why, I archive a program using his software,
of course!

I used Bob's program to archive an Astrocade BASIC tape program by
The Tiny Arcade called "Fireworks."  A full explanation about the
program is below.  Load it up and have fun with it!  It is called
'fireworks.zip' and can be downloaded from the discussion group
file area [it is no longer available there].

I want to thank Bob for making Ballybin- I couldn't have archived
this holiday program without it!  Anyone that loads this program
successfully, please contact me (Lance? Tony? Rob?  Wanna give it
a go?  Even... Ward?).

Now, where is that American Flag program I saw in the Arcadian...
