A lot of people my age that touched Macintoshes in the nineties know that game, Glider, written by John Calhoun. I recently started wanting to try and program a game for the Apple II as it is something I never attempted before, and I wanted to see if I got good enough at 6502 assembly for that. After a difficult start, I managed to have the project take off (pun intended) and decided to make a Glider reimplementation for the Apple II.

I hope you will enjoy playing it as much as I enjoyed developing it!

Glider for Apple II is now ready for a beta release:

If you find issues, please report them on the issue tracker!

Glider for Apple II requires an Apple ][+ or more recent; on the Apple ][+, a Mouse Card and mouse are required to play. On more recent computers of the Apple II line, the mouse is optional and Glider can be controlled either by mouse or keyboard. Glider for Apple II is best enjoyed on a monochrome screen. This is a design choice.
