I am very proud to present the results of my latest project...
...the first-ever fully documented and annotated disassembly of Lander on the Acorn Archimedes.
Lander was the very first game released for the ARM platform, and is arguably the only game ever written explicitly for the original ARM1 processor (there are famously no MUL instructions in there). And, of course, it's the second bona fide classic from the genius of David Braben, as this is the game he wrote next after his astonishing work on Elite.
I will be adding a number of deep dives to the site over the coming weeks, but for now, I hope you enjoy the results, which you can see here:
And as always there is also a GitHub repository containing fully buildable source code that you can play with:

I hope you like it!
