This looks incredibly cool and fun. Would be interested trying to re-write some of the games myself when I have some free time.

It has only been about 44 years. I expect to have some time next week.

Same. Should be able to get it done in two to three weeks. This time for sure maybe

I'll set aside a couple hours this weekend to knock out a couple.
