On this new episode of #RTFM (*Read the Freaking Manual), I play #Gridrunner, by #JeffMinter from 1982-1983 for the #Atari800 #homecomputer & on a variety of other platforms. This game has a rich history dating back to 1982, up through 2018. You play the pilot of the Gridrunner, tasked with maneuvering alien droids on the grid, stopping them before they destroy #Earth! I go over the history of the game, read the manual, show some #gameplay & also show some gameplay by @Highretrogamelord on #YouTube. Can you defeat the #alien #droids once and for all?
