He says it's a simple demo and not a proper game but I found it a lot of fun!

  Me too, a lot of people made a lot of money in the 80's by doing ports to home computers that weren't this good.

    To be fair, programming games like this on an 80's computer would be much harder since you couldn't just do everything in a scripting language and not have to worry about CPU cycles.

  Yeah, me too. =) There are other 'unfinished' games that are nevertheless lots of fun to play. It's amazing: lots of people will insist that modern games need lots of polish and awesome graphics in order to be any fun, but it's certainly not always true - at least not for certain audiences and certain games. Evidently, sufficiently engaging mechanics and 'overall experience' (which is a very broad category, of course) can be enough to give players what they want.

    With the Humble Bundles and Steam (and a lot of AAA titles going for console releases first or only) there has been a real surge in indy games the last 5 to 10 years.

  I think it's because rough as the gameplay may be, the music is perfect.
