was for an Ant Attack editor. The basic version took 30 minutes to compile a level. The assembly version completed so quickly I thought I must have made a mistake.

# I ran a company called Target Software in the early eighties.
I was given a copy of Ant Attack at a trade show. I think it was the only game I ever got to the end of. I remember you got a gold medal come up on the screen.
