Subject: TESTING NEEDED. Games on inthe80s.com

If you have Java on your machine, and run Internet Explorer, please try the Dig Dug game and let me know if you can see it ok.

I'm especially interested in knowing whether older browsers (such as Internet Explorer 5.0, 5.5 or 6.0) can see the game ok.

Just Dig Dug right now.  I haven't played around with the other pages yet.  I'm trying to update all the pages on inthe80s for the upcoming 10 year anniversary.

Running fine on mine (using IE 6.0.29), Chucky. BTW, what kind of funky version of Dig Dug is this anyway? :)

Just to let you know, when I tried to run Elevator Action I just got an old c-64 style blue screen with a prompt.

The speed on Time Pilot is majorly jacked up.

Oh... neither Frogger nor Phoenix load for me (get a blank java screen with a red x in the corner

More to come if I find any other problems. :)

Elevator Action is working again!

Frogger and Phoenix are still DOA.  and Time Pilot appears to be unfixable as well.

another one... this one required a ton of work, and it's still not 100% xhtml conformant (thank you Internet Explorer)

I tested it in Firefox 1.0.3 and Internet Explorer 6.  if you're using an older version of IE, check it out.

that was a test version.  I put it in with the regular section.  Click on games on the 80s site and you can find it.  I'd provide a link, but I'm work at the moment and links to games are blocked.
