I’ve seen several postings announcing Flapple Bird, an arcade style game for the Apple II. I looked at the posted video and was intrigued.
I downloaded it to my Linux laptop and tried it in AppleWin and liked it. I downloaded it to my windows desktop and played it there for a while. Now it was time to play it on my Apple //c, so I loaded up ADTPro 2.0.0 and downloaded the 140k version. When I booted the disk it would go through the boot of ProDOS 8 version 1.8 and stop. I tried a couple of different diskettes with exactly the same result. I tried downloading them to the other diskette drive, again with the same result.
I tried the 800K diskette image and my first diskette had a bad spot. Second disk downloaded OK, but stopped in the same place with the ProDos screen showing the version.
Thinking about it now, I haven’t been able to download and run any disk image since I switched from 1.2.8 to 2.0.0 so I am going to try going back to 1.2.8 and try that in the morning.
