I found this in the late 1980s for just $15, and it was a huge bargain at that price. When one of the discs failed, I had to spend $7.50 to replace it, and that was well worth it. I got endless enjoyment from creating my own games and sharing them with friends. ACS is ahead of its time, allowing multiplayer with up to 4 players as well as the unique ability to automatically finish a game you've partially made or to create a new one from scratch.

I had a cool summer making games for my little brother and some neighborhood kids. I was in the middle of coming up with a 125 object epic when an unhappy love affair hit and then I entered the service and bought an Amiga and that killed the project.
