"Starship"
By Ken Lill
AstroBASIC
198x


Archiving comments by Paul Thacker:

"Starship" was found in Ken Lill's tape collection on a tape hand-labeled 
"Finders Keepers".  This tape contained two copies of Finders Keepers in 
AstroBASIC, two copies of Starship in AstroBASIC, plus Bally BASIC versions of 
each game.

Starship seems unfinished to me.  You can shoot the enemy ship by pulling the 
trigger, or bomb it by pushing the joystick left of right.  But there's no way 
to aim, you just always hit, and once you run out of ammo, you can only wait 
until the enemy ship destroys you.

Starship (198x)(Ken Lill)(2000 baud)(proto)[a] - Prototype, version A, crashed 
shortly after starting.

Starship (19xx)(Ken Lill)(2000 baud)(proto)[a2] - Found on a tape in Ken Lill's 
collection hand-labeled "At 0 @357=Logo, At 100 @257=STREAP, At 160 @258=Can 
You Quit". A version of Starship that controls a little differently than the 
previously archived versions. Push the joystick left and pull the trigger to 
use guns, and push it right and pull the trigger to use bombs. It also seems 
unfinished. Once your ammo is depleted, there seems to be nothing to do other 
than wait to be destroyed.
