If you're thinking to shrinkwrap it on a card, then you can easily do that yourself ....
Oh absolutely !

We'll have a professionally printed package about the size of a hardcoverbook & the bulk of an LP.

Once those are ordered we'll have a shrinkwrapping machine by then.

We'll wait for the orders ta come in, make a copy of the game individually -- with a nice label on it ! -- slide the floppydisk into it

with a sheet of paper saying any guidance needed to play the game's in the HELP dropdown menu, shrinkwrap it & send it out using bulkmail.

Will it run in System 7 as well?/me has only two Macs that can run System 6 ...
I'm not a coding expert -- thanks to "mu0n", by the way, for the "C++ For Dummies" PDF ! :beige: Sorry I couldn't make any use of it ....

-- but I'm guessing given the premium being put on tight coding -- we want literally each & every byte of the 1, 440, 000

we have at our disposal to count -- it'll be so "System6"-esque it won't conflict with any "System 7" executions, I guess you can say ....

What a great idea, Cary.
Thanks, man !

Believe it or not that makes it all worthwhile

I wish there were more developers who realised you don't have to have the latest and greatest hardware to still make good software.
I agree

I look forward to trying it out.
Thanks again !

You'll love it -- I guarantee it.

My inspirations are "Aces Over Europe", "Chuck Yeager's Air Combat" &, of course, the flatshade polygonal classic

"HellCats Over The Pacific" done by the master himself Eric Parker -- with whom I manitain a semiregular correspondence.

And I may be jumping the gun here a little but networking via modem & a 1-800 number we'll pay for's

-- "1-800-BOXMACS" , for example -- bein' looked inta
