Fully documented source code for Lander on the Acorn Archimedes


Fully documented source code disassembly for Acornsoft Lander on the Acorn Archimedes, with lots of deep dive articles explaining how every aspect of the game works.

This site contains reconstructed source code for Lander, David Braben's epic game for the Acorn Archimedes, with every single line documented and (for the most part) explained.
