[rec.games.programmer] "Deadstick" Space Shuttle Landing Simulation

sandro@nlm-mcs.arpa (Michael D'Alessandro) (11/29/88)

Several years ago, a computer games magazine entitled "Softside" 
published a listing for a game entitled "Deadstick" which was
written in Atari Basic.  "Softside" no longer exists, and I would
be interested in obtaining a copy of the "Deadstick" listing so
that I could translate it from Atari Basic over to a generic 
Microsoft Basic so it could run on the Mac and the PC.  Now I know
there are excellent shuttle simulators available ( Orbiter for the
Mac, for example) but I would still like to translate "Deadstick"
over to my Mac, so that I can learn how one of these simulators is
designed.   Naturally, once my translation is finished I would make
available to any and all gratis.

So, if you have a copy of the "Softside" issue containing "Deadstick"
I would really appreciate it if you would contact me.

Thankyou,

Michael
