Sad
I loved his Mega-Bug game for the Tandy CoCo and it was the inspiration for the first game I wrote in QB64, Super Mega-Bug. One of the most vivid childhood memories I have is the Xmas season of 1982, walking up to the local Radio Shack (which I did many times a week), and seeing a CoCo in the window running Mega-Bug, the first time I saw it. My mind was blown.

I played every one of his games back in the day. Sad to see him go at such an early age. RIP.
