How It Begins
You are R. J. Wright, an overtired undernourished overeager programmer that has promised to deliver a finished program to a client by 8:00 tomorrow morning. As a self-employed computer consultant you're working at home using CosmoServe, your favorite BBS.
Notable Features
- A built-in BBS simulation complete with sound effects for logging on, switching the computer on and off, etc.
Trivia and Comments
- Judith "customized" the Turbo Pascal source code for AGT to create a game that was bigger than any game ever previously written with AGT.
