Looking for Golden Apple (trs-80/amiga)

#1 Post by jdyer »

Mentioned here

https://solutionarchive.com/game/id%2C8 ... Apple.html

with screenshots, but I can't find any archive that has it, for either Amiga or TRS-80. I'm guessing a personal web page thing maybe? Can someone help?

The Amiga version is on disk APD296 of the AMOS PD library. You have to search for it under its alternate name of "Glod" to find it, as in https://www.amigapd.com/amospdprograms.html .

That entire library can be downloaded from https://archive.org/details/cdrom-amospdcd
which will give you amospdcd.iso .

If you mount that ISO file, you will find glod.amos in the subdirectory \276-300\APD296 .

Strangely, I could not open this particular APD296 subdirectory under my workplace Windows installation - it came up as corrupted. Although all other subdirectories were fine.

It did open fine when mounted under Linux however and I was then able to copy the APD296 contents back over to Windows. You may well have more luck than me under Windows.

In any case, I was then able to to open the glod.amos file in AMOS, which I obtained from
https://amigaboing.net/amos30/
(Note this download contains an embedded copy of the WinUAE emulator).

It plays fine directly in the AMOS interpreter, or it can be complied with the AMOS compiler if desired.

A couple of screenshots I just took from WinUAE:-
