Target (Hayden Book Company)

Overview

Try to make the ball hit the round target in the centre. Kind of like as very basic implementation of pinball in a way, only with one target for the ball to hit. Also you cannot hit the squares in the corner. Hitting the squares results in a game over.

Developed by Peter Holmes & Derek J. Bush of Honeyfold Software and published by Hayden Book Company in the book Commodore 64 BASIC Programming in 1984.

While the game was a type-in, the book was also released with a floppy disk containing all the programs in the magazine already typed-in and up and running.
