LOS Games floppy -- three new games for the Lisa Office System on one disk
A single 400K floppy image with the native LOS games that have appeared
this year, gathered with their authors' permission so they can be
installed in one go:
TETRIS by ried -- the falling-tile classic, real time on the
Lisa desktop.
Minesweeper by Alex Anderson-McLeod -- the minefield puzzle, with
the LisaFPGA author's blessing to distribute freely
(source on his GitHub).
Lisa Slide Puzzle by T. O'Connor -- sliding tiles cut from the LISA
Slide Show's pictures; [one sample picture and
LisaFileMover 1.1 are on the disk for adding more].
Where to get it
The Apple Lisa BBS: telnet theapplelisabbs.duckdns.org 1983
Floppy Images > Releases: [LOS_GAMES_1_0.dc42]
GlobalTalk: LisaGaming Zone
LISAList2
68kMLA (here)
Installing
Mount the image, open the floppy, and drag or duplicate each game
onto your hard disk. All three run under LOS 3.1; tested on a Lisa
2/10. Each author keeps their own source: TETRIS [ried's repo],
Minesweeper [Alex's repo], Slide Puzzle at
github.com/GyroPilot/Apple-LisaSlidePuzzle.
Note: Use Lisa File Move to move .pix files from the floppy to HD.
Thanks to ried and Alex for saying yes.

Oh man, this is great! I was just thinking recently how much I'd like to see a Tetris port to this Lisa. Great work. |
