This is a game I wrote together with a friend of mine over 30 years ago. It' s about jumping over casks with a motor bike. But you must not drive too fast nor too slow to land exactly on the left ramp. You have 5 motor-bikes. After 12 casks you get an extra motor-bike.

We published the game in a German computer magazine called CPU in May 1984. Unfortunately, we lost the listing and the tape with the program but thanks to tokra and others who sent the respective pages to me, I am now able to provide the game here. In fact, the listing in the magazine contained a number of errors so I debugged the program and improved the joystick routine somewhat.
In the zip file there are a text file with the listing and disk and tape images both for joystick and keyboard control. Using the keyboard, type CRSR-down to accelerate and CRSR-right to brake.

An now have fun.
