Balloon Crazy for the TI-99/4a

The TI-99/4a was my first home computer, I remember setting up for hours typing in programs from Compute Magazine. I remember sitting wondering why the programs didn't work. I didn't have extended basic at the time, I didn't have a disk-drive, or any expansion. I did have a bunch of game carts. But to get the computer to do anything, you had to program it. This is me using the online simulator https://js99er.net using Compute Magazine issue 067 from Dec 1985, found on the Internet Archive. Page 60 https://archive.org/details/1985-12-compute-magazine/page/n61/mode/2up. And the correction to line 390 found in Issue 069 (Two months later) Feb 1986 page 112 https://archive.org/details/1986-02-compute-magazine/page/n113/mode/2up Yes, sometimes programming these was a frustrating waiting game.
