8086tiny is highly portable and runs on practically any little endian machine, from simple 32-bit MCUs upwards. 8086tiny has successfully been deployed on 32-bit/64-bit Intel machines (Windows, Mac OS X and Linux), Nexus 4/ARM (Android), iPad 3 and iPhone 5S (iOS), and Raspberry Pi (Linux). Mac OS has such good HiDPI support compared to Windows (and especially Linux). Alleycat on Mar 18, 2017. What really needs to happen is a big name company with.

Description of Alley Cat
If there were an award for 'most enduring gameplay per KB of data,' Alley Cat would have won my vote. In what seems like an incredible feat of programming, Bill Williams was able to pack hours of fun and diverse gameplay into only 38KB of space. As an alley cat, evade dogs, humans, and other obstacles to rescue your sweetheart.
One of the most amazing things about the game is that it actually sets its own clock speed so that the speed of your computer is irrelevant. This means you don't need Moslo to enjoy the game :)

Another game that came from one of mum Dad’s friends at work.
I could solve most of the levels but the fish tank one was nearly impossible.

Just one of so many games I remember playing on the class computers at school. I actually hadn't known about this being one of those games that was clock adaptive. Of course those school computers were all 8088s even into the mid 90s.

Anyone who likes this game should check out this excellent remake which was created a few months ago - Alley Cat Remeow Edition

I remember Alley Cat fondly.
It was one of the games we had available in our then-newer after-school 'Computer Club', alongside California Games, Lode Runner, etc..
Filled to the brim with Apple Computers, during school time the 'computer lab' was used for early computer skills classes, such as teaching early word processing using WordStar (Ctrl-B, Ctrl-K to mark the start & end of a '[B]loc[K]' of text to Cut n Paste elsewhere) -- popular up to 1985, when WordPerfect became more popular, and later of course MS Word.
But during lunch break and after school, the lab became a hub of BBS activity and games.
Alley Cat, here, was very popular at the time!

I remember when my brother brought this home on the old 5' floppy disk! Played it all the time on my TANDY 1000 ex. RIP tandy 1000.???? that machine lasted! We only got rid of it because we got a computer with internet and a mouse (yeah, we went high tech) ????
thanks

My sister and I used to play this on our IBM-XT; I'll be sending this to her along with all of the other classics we used to play on that machine.
RIP IBM-XT.
RIP IBM-XT.

Dang I wish they would make a new version of this with decent colors. That would be just awesome! So many imaginative minigames. I love knocking the fish bowl off the shelf! HAHAHHA.

Leo Perez
501st Legion
On a journey to track down the grave of their estranged father, Maribel and Anthony find their way to the Malort Cemetery, a strange, seemingly abandoned field of mostly unmarked tombs. There they encounter an eccentric clan of grave-robbers who've devised a highly-addictive drug made from human remains--and the fresher the corpse, the stronger the dose. What started out as an attempt to reconnect with the past becomes a descent into a psychedelic, neon-colored nightmare, will Maribel and Anthony find their way through the hallucinogens or will they become the next hit?
Written by M.L. Miller (Pirouette) and featuring mind-shredding artwork by new artist James Michael Whynot, Gravetrancers delivers a grisly grindhouse tale of taboo and terror.
