Shenanigans

"Countless legends tell of a magnificent Pot of Gold and enormous wealth hidden by leprechauns at the end of the rainbow. Many have attempted to find the marvelous treasure but success has eluded them and it remains hidden to this day. Because you are a dedicated adventurer, eager to face danger and challenges for great rewards, you have determined to search for that fabled Pot of Gold and succeeded where others have failed."

"Once upon a time, in a previous life, my friend, Steve O’Dea and I developed a series of six graphic adventures for the Radio Shack Color Computer. These adventures were marketed by Mark Data Products and were considered rather revolutionary for their time. The adventures stored all images compressed in memory and were usable from cassette based systems as well as from diskette. These games were all written in MC6809 assembly language and assembled with the fantastic Micro Works MACRO-80C assembler. To this day this is one of the best assemblers I’ve ever used. A little known fact is that these adventure games were also ported to the IBM/PC using a CGA graphic screen. These versions entered the market too late and did not take full advantage of the available hardware and were not widely distributed."
