    The mac classic was my computer back in the days, it went with me from boarding school, back home and vice versa. We had a 'newspaper' about the going around in the school, i wrote the columns at the last page, and those were the most popular. I wrote them all on my mac classic, i learned about hypercard, typing, managing documents and play some old games! My favorite is called ShufflePuck, a quick reaction game, lot of fun to see all the characters ;)

    Great work on that Macintosh Plus, and great video! You playing Beyond Dark Castle just took me back to the late 1980s, when I played it on my Dad’s Macintosh 512K! It still looks and sounds fantastic! I played a lot of Arkanoid on it too. I don’t know if you’ve heard of a RUclips channel called Adrian’s Digital Basement, but I know that he said that Macintosh Pluses don’t (usually) have bad capacitors, unlike other old black and white Macs. I don’t know why that is; maybe Apple switched to a different company or something.

Just tried it out for the first time. Guess there’s no chance getting one of those special Flappy Mac disks with source et? Would love to check it out in THINK C.

      I'll put Flappy Mac source online in the future. I wrote so many comments to explain what everything does, it would be a good learning tool for someone starting out programming vintage Mac. Need time to sort it out first though so probably won't be till after my next game...

    Awesome! I just picked up a SE/30 compact mac from a local seller yesterday and I'm super excited to check it out over the weekend. I haven't owned a compact mac since my family swapped our old Mac Plus out for a pizza-box Centris 610 in the mid-90s, and I've been feeling pretty nostalgic for it lately. Your channel has been a great resource in rediscovering some of my old favorite games from that era. Kudos!

    One thing I liked about the old black & white games, was that you can easily identify what everything is on the screen. Unlike some color games where the pixels are huge and shapes were vague, there is something about these 2-color games and being able to recognize what everything in the graphics were.

    I poked around at memory addresses in the NES version of Uninvited, and while I found graphics for the door you were trying to open in the magisterium as being opened, the entire artist gallery room doesn't seem to exist. If you're familiar with RAM editing, the address $0501 controls what art is loaded per screen, you can edit and freeze the value in an emulator to force different room artwork to display when you leave/reload a room. Setting that address' value to $51 shows the inside of the magisterium with the art gallery door open. I've checked the American version, the uncensored Japanese version, and earliest dumped US prototype of the game and none of them have the graphics for the actual artist gallery, so I'm pretty sure getting access to that room is completely impossible.

    My dad LOVED The Dungeon of Doom. He created a character using the "Jones" character class, named him Caissa which is the name he used on all his games, and played it on and off for over a year, he reached that final level, got the orb, then climbed all the way back to the first until he reached the exit and got that ending screen of having escaped the dungeon with the orb. He was so proud of that, because it had been such a VERY hard game. And, keep in mind, my dad was never good at video games (except Tetris)
