I guess this will be classified as not a "real" game due to lack of 3D effects, having a low frame rate or the shading isn't quite up to snuff. During the time I had my MacPlus this is what was offered and it was a lot of fun. It still took skill to play with success.

@Chinito77: Ya, it was coded in TML Pascal. Not a hardcore game, but fun. Glad he wrote it. Reminds me of those early days. I played it first on my Mac LC back in late 1991.

Graphically, it reminds me of something created on the old Hyper Card program on the Mac OS 7 days. Looks interesting.

So sad to hear that Duane Blehm is gone. I remember ordering the source code for ZeroGravity from him when I was eleven or so despite not really knowing what to do with it at the time, but his games stood out from all the others in terms of attention to detail and smoothness that I wanted to learn from him. Had a bit of minor contact with him and he was super sweet.
