When I first got my C= 16, it came with a (ahem) "platform" game called
"Punchy". I spent hours trying to complete it. When I eventually did, my
sense of elation lasted about a second, as rather than congratulating me (or
presenting a beautifully rendered outro like nowadays), it went straight
back to the start. Bummer!
