Carol Shaw wrote the display kernel. Ed Logg wrote the game logic. (vblank/overscan)

Like Jason I own this cart as well. It's a nice break from the fast-paced arcade games. And the 2600 plays a mean game of Othello. This is one 2600 game that should not be missed.

I own this particular cart. It was found in a Missouri Council for the Blind thrift store in Springfield Missouri in 1998.
