Since I have been able to get permissions from original software authors to release their games to the public, I have decided to also make ZIPped .DSK images available, by author, as collections. This will make them easier to install on an emulator, or, if you have OS-9, with the DSK converter program. However, I don't always have all of the games of an author. I have been trying to find them, but it is taking a long time in some cases, so I thought I would start the page with what I have, and add to it as I receive more. So, check here periodically to see if any of the collections have been added to. To start with, we have Dave Crandall's 1 DSK image collection, which contains 12 games in total.

1) The Dave Crandall Collection (12 games, 1 .DSK file)
As of Dec. 28, 2001, it contains: El Bandito, Caterpillar, Doodle Bug (regular version), Doodle Bug (PAL color set version), Eyespy, Fangman, Gobbler, Nerble Force, Orbitron, Packmaze, Trickashay and Vox Chess.

2) The Ken Kalish Collection (11 games, 1 .DSK file)
As of April 4, 2007 it contains: Devil's Assault, El Diablero, Dungeon Raid, Monkey Kong, Phantom Slayer, Danger Ranger, Starship Chameleon, Trapfall, Invaders Revenge, Athletyx and Escape.
NOTE:I have noticed that the ESCAPE program seems to sometimes corrupt the disk it was ran from. Please either set the disk image to READ ONLY, if you are running on an emulator, or write protect the disk if you are running on a real Coco.
Every game on this DSK image only required 16K, except Athletyx, which requires 32K.

3) The Dave Edson Collection (5 games, 1 .DSK file)
As of March 29, 2002 it contains: Caterpillar, Catch' Em, Tube Frenzy, Tutankam, and Venturer. If anyone has working version of Planet Raiders, please email them to me so that I may add them to this collection. Every game on this DSK image only required 16K, except Tutankam, which requires 32K.

4) The Leo Christopherson Collection (1 games, 1 .DSK file)
As of March 14, 2005, it contains: Klendathu.

5) The J. Weaver Junior Collection (3 games, 1 .DSK file)

6) The Ottmar Bochardt Collection (2 games, 1 .DSK file)

9) The David Clark Collection (4 games, 1 .DSK file)

11) The Roger Schrag arcade game Collection (2 games, 1 .DSK file)
As of April 12, 2007, it contains: Airline, and Arex. Once I get the text adventure games together and fixed up, they will be on a separate .DSK image (unless everything fits on a 35 track disk).

12) The Mike Roberts Collection (2 games, 1 .DSK file)
As of April 17, 2007, it contains: Bagitman and New Burt.

13) The Charles Forsythe Collection (2 games, 1 .DSK file)
As of April 17, 2007, it contains: Ninja Warrior and Pac Droids. I will add Tower of Fear to this collections as well as soon as I find my copy again. It should be noted that the title and start level screens for both of these will only display properly on a Coco 1/2, but the game screens themselves will work on a Coco 3.
