I cannot play SAM shoot'ems with any sound -sigh- (Unless SIMcoupe for MACOS has
been updated?)
Maybe I should write some more - don't hold your breath though ;)
Actually, I've been caught (sorry off topic here) by an excellent game in the
Mac called Escape Velocity Override. Rather like Elite - but 2D instead.
