I've never before heard of it, but this struck me instantly as being very authentic, pre-NES retro design. Lo and behold, the original came out in 1984! I don't have a friend to play with atm, but it seems fun.

This page says that it came out in the 1983, which is the year I was born. Didn't know that :) There is also another very interesting information. This game was based on the Boot Hill arcade machine from 1977. Arcades! What memories!

I am considering implementing basic AI to the game. I do not remeber how it behaved in the original, but it would be nice to get as close to it as possible.
