“Colleen Qubic by C Shaw” [3-D Tic-Tac-Toe] source code listing for Atari 800, 11/21/79; 1979

File — Box: 2, Folder: 4

Scope and Content Note

From the Sub-Series:

This subseries contains printed source code listings for Polo, 3-D Tic-Tac-Toe (here, called “Qubic”), Calculator, Video Checkers, and Super Breakout. Games marked with “Stella” are for the Atari 2600, while “Colleen” games are for the Atari 800 system. Of particular interest is the 1978 printout for Polo, which is perhaps the first documented game designed and programmed by a woman.

These printouts are on 11” x 15” lined printer paper, with the pages still attached at the perforations. Shaw marked annotations in pencil and pen on some of the pages.
