I have an Atari 800xl, besides several Apple II's, and have been playing the game M.U.L.E. I'm curious if anyone knows why this game was never ported to the Apple II back in the day? Would there be any chance of someone looking at this and attemptingto port it now?
Thanks,
magnus
The author, Dan Bunten, mentioned this in an article on ports in Computer Gaming World, December 1984. "The approach can be difficult to implement in some cases (e.g. M.U.L.E. can't be done for an Apple)." (Page 40) The context is an approach toporting of designing for the highest capability system, then cutting features when porting to other systems.
