I am putting this here because it is the most important thing for me to write about.
If you have any way you can get this game to others, please do so. I would like to see everyone have a copy of this game, and it is only fair that if I spend the time making a game, someone else will give it away. Thank you.
Compatibility:
Alpha Battle II works on most Color Macs, in 4-bit mode. You needn’t change your monitor to run this program.
Registering Alpha Battle II:
Alpha Battle II is currently limited so that the user remains on level 1. For $10, I can send you a password which will enable you to play all of the levels. This game is still fully functional without the password, but the next levels are a big bonus for registering. To register Alpha Battle II and receive the password, please send $10 to

Version History:
Alpha Battle 1.0:
Works in 4-bit and 8-bit color mode. Uses a 480x640 pixels (13” RGBColor Monitor size). Operates between two “boxes”, with four different enemies. Two player version, two player duel, and mouse-control. Uses a slow algorithm for game speed, and inefficient game code.
Alpha Battle II 2.0:
Works in 4-bit only. Now works on 12” monitors. Uses a toaster-mac screen size (320 x 512 pixels). Very fast, tight code. Different sound algorithms. Has a scrolling background, stars, and the “box” was extended to 1500 x 1500 pixels. Changes to the opponents include 8+ unique aliens, asteroids, missiles, and 6 bosses. Extra features include bonus items, nukes, turbo turning, two different ships, and a brake. Two-player mode was eliminated.
