Subject: PacPerson for CP/M
PacPerson for CP/M is almost (REALLY ALMOST and REALLY NOT QUITE) ready
for release. Prior to the release of PacPerson R2.0, I need serious
testors to help me out.
These are the criteria:
-that you have a complete QTerm patch available for your own terminal/
computer and know how to patch it unto a QTerm.Pat compatible
program.
-that you have a good knowledge of what kind of bugs can plague a
program like this (real-time, interactive) and what kind of
situation can bring those bugs out.
or -that you have a VERY sharp eye for cosmetic and gramatical mistakes
and such. Spelling checker is a plus; this is primarily to check
the documentation.
And, of course, you must enjoy playing games.
If you are simply interested in playing the game and having a good time,
please be patient so you may benefit fully from the most finalized
version. I will post an "it's ready" message when R2.0 is ready for
distribution. (R1.0 is identical in features and appearance to R2.0,
so any pre-distribution distribution will cause a general confusion!)
If you are hyperanxious about getting the game when it is released,
drop me a line saying so. I will distribute it directlyl to you
provided I have a valid network address. (It'll take me a while to
be able to type in those long UUnet addresses correctly... :-) )
Thank you very much

P.S. Why is it called PacPerson? It will be obvious once you play
the game if you have any knowledge of all the arcade derivatives
of Pac Man.
P.P.S. David G. - of course, you qualify automatically!
