|  The Origin of David's Midnight Magic
David's Midnight Magic... What a cool game! In my opinion, it's the best pinball game for the Plus/4. I always wondered about where this game came from. I thought it was an official release... I even managed to find out who was the developer of the original game, it was David Snider. He has (had?) a website too somewhere.
Today I got the answer for my question though: this was in fact converted by a Hungarian person from C64. Load up the game, and then look into the memory from $E850 with YAPE monitor... His name is Imre Szabo, I don't suppose anyone knows him? This also explains why there is an "IMI" entry in the high-score table. I used to think that whoever cracked this commercial game just left his initials in there, but "IMI" is a nickname for the Hungarian male name "Imre".
I changed the game from "Commercial" to "Freeware". Well, I can stop looking for this cover.
