[Coco] 20 games that defined the TRS-80 Color Computer Video

[Steve Ostrom]

A guy named Rodger Smith wrote a bunch of very high quality ML arcade games 
(e.g. Brew Master), most eventually were published by T&D.  He had one 
called Flippy, based on a very popular video arcade game at the time, which 
was very simple yet addictive (catching falling balls on a seal's nose). 
That one is still on my "favorites" disk.

Don't leave out Marty's Nightmare, Sinistar, and all the early graphic
adventure games.

Yes Brian, Cashman is what it was!

For the others, I trust that these YouTube links work or search them out :)

DoubleBack is like the arcade Quantum,

Grabber is unique, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Re8yJ9cVtDY

Birds is like the arcade Phoenix or Galaxian,

Cashman is like Jumpman(?), https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eZYM5ieEUp0
