Blockbuster (Grisewood & Dempsey)

A short program by Patricia Grady and published in the book "St. Michael Computer Games Micromasters" in 1984. This is game, but a game created to help student programmers realized more thoroughly how to use graphics with keyboard characters with color codes and patterns that might allow you to make a simple ship or a more complex PETSCII portrait. How colors and backgrounds impact them and how to group repeating characters to make a design. It is an 11 line treatise on making mountains out of molehills and making art from simple keystrokes.
