in the Retro Remakes coding competition 2003 - hurrah!

This is a remake of the ZX Spectrum game Ground Attack released way back in 1982 and appearing on the humble 16K Speccy. It is basically an early conversion of the coin operated arcade machine Scramble - but without the graphics, sound, playability or lasting appeal!

This game was written for the Retro Remakes 2003 coding competition, using Blitz Basic. It is poor - deliberately so - it is a wooden spoon entry for the competition. However, as it weighs in at only 400Kb, you really can't expect too much anyway, now can you?
