[Coco] Pac Man Version 1.01 - update already!

[Glen Hewlett]

Hi Guys,

I don’t see those adds when I use the tiny upload site…. Weird.  I do use ad blocker with Chrome though…

I did post it on the CoCo Archive but it takes a little while to get approved and added to the site.  It should show up there shortly.

Cheers,
Glen.
