Retro Gaming & Programming

I am working on an Atari 2600 game in Assembly!  It is called "Mouse Madness" and has been a fun project!

In Mouse Madness, you are a cat with the zoomies! You must run from room to room, attacking cat toys and other random household objects. The winner is the player with the most items attacked before the timer runs out.
