[net.micro] VECTREX Narzod Bug

debenedi@yale-com.UUCP (Robert DeBenedictis) (02/26/84)

Last night a friend was playing Narzod on his VECTREX.  He got to the
point were he was fighting the monster in the city.  He killed the
monster but as it was falling apart one of the fireballs it had shot
killed my friend's ship.  A round or two after this we noticed that the
thing that tells you how many ships you have left showed infinity.  It
used a real infinity symbol too (the sideways eight).  It almost didn't
seem like a bug.  My friend just kept playing till he got bored since
he had an unlimited number of ships.  He got to level 5 and had a score
of 128850.

Has anybody encountered this before?  Is it a bug?
