Mark McDougall, of The Space Invaders TRS-80 'Bootleg' Project fame, has taken another big leap with a port of the MSX version of Lode Runner to the TRS-80 Model 4/4P equipped with a MicroLabs/RadioShack hires graphics board. While it would be cooler without the need for a hardware add-on that few collectors have (I sure don't), it's still a great technical accomplishment and a very interesting story. Be sure to check out this awesome bitmap image of all the levels in the game! (Thanks to Matthew Reed for bringing this project to my attention.)
