I'm surprised by the ports from other systems. I was familiar with Lode Runner, but that one was ported to everything. Star League Baseball is a surprise for me. Star League Baseball was the best baseball game available at the time, but it's less remembered because the next year Hardball! on the C64 just blew away the competition and set a whole new standard. It even found a place in pop culture history due to The Princess Bride. But before Hardball, Star League Baseball was the top baseball game, by far.
Hardball came out for the Mac too, I did have a copy back then but unfortunately it crashed right away. I couldn't even swing the bat before it would crash! 😆 Hardball went on to have many games in the series -- I really should try and revisit that one and see what it's like! Thanks!
Lode Runner was an early early EARLY game I had in that time when we had basically 2-3 games at the very start of our Mac years at home. I'll never remember exactly but I think it was Déjà Vu from Rubicon the memory tile game (still have the original disk and had it preserved in moof by 4am and co) and possible airborne or pinball construction set.
thanks for the video Gruz, grid wars looks almost too full on to run on a 128K Mac, i never played it but have seen you show it a few times now, might check it out :) It does look a bit like shufflepuck cafe but different at the same time :)
Does anyone remember a very simple game where you give commands to a literal apple with arms, legs, and a face? For example, you type “run” and the apple would run. Sleep, eat, etc
Anyone know of any other great games that run on the 128K?
I don't think I've seen anyone cover the Captain Blood port for OG Mac and it's got weird aliens👽👽👽👽
yeah
Enchanted Scepters, Cap'n Magneto, Ultima ][, ChipWits and Xyphus are favorites
That's the best looking Lode Runner I've yet seen. More great stuff, thanks.
Yeaaaasss! Love your content
never cared about text based games or sport ones but i did love platformers

Grid Wars: A computer game about being a space freighter captain who's in an alien bar... playing a computer game. Alright.

Championship Star League Baseball players were hardcore... barehand baseball.

Can you run Continuum on a 128k?
Unfortunately that one needed 512k. :( www.ski-epic.com/continuum_downloads/
@@insanelygruz interesting thanks. Still the most technically impressive early Mac game IMHO
