Article description: (description)
This attribute controls the content of the description and og:description elements. | In 1991, IBM and Microsoft released a game for MS-DOS and simply titled it Gorillas. The actual file was Gorilla.BAS. Compiled in the Quick-Basic language, it was a very simple game in which players had gorillas on buildings and took turns throwing exploding bananas at each other. Players had to account for angles, velocities, and wind speed to see who could blow up more of the other guy's gorillas before time ran out. Add a few motherboard beeps to the 1812 overture, and the end result was awesome. Except....it wasn't good enough for the think tank Dozerfleet Productions, home of the Gerosha Chronicles and Stationery Voyagers. |
