Drugwar/64 is a port of Drugwar//e. Here's where it might get
|
|
|
|
|
confusing. Drugwar//e is itself an Applesoft BASIC recreation of the
|
|
|
|
|
TI-BASIC (TI83) game DRUGWAR which, itself, was based off a game John
|
|
|
|
|
E. Dell wrote for the IBM PC and TRS-80.

E. Dell wrote for the IBM PC and TRS-80. The game is based around
|
|
|
|
|
the buying and selling of drugs in "a major city". The user has to
|
|
|
|
|
contend with constantly changing prices, events designed to cause
|
|
|
|
|
spikes and drops in prices, police trying to catch you, and a loan

shark you owe money. Your goal is to pay off your debt, earn the most
|
|
|
|
|
money you can, and make it out alive; all in a period of 30 days. You
|
|
|
|
|
are able to buy upgrades and even guns along the way.

Drugwar//e was written in Applesoft BASIC using the help of Loz's

After the switch to GitLab, I decided to make a second project that was

just each revision submitted in order. BASIC from Alpha 1 up to 1.03 has

been committed; and VirtualBasic from Beta 1 up to 1.03 has also been

committed. It is only there for the curious.
