2025-12-29: I have restored the wiki to a backup from the end of November. Starting in September 2025, accesses went form the 800MB-1.2GB range per month to 26GB in September, 42GB in October, and 70GB in November with most accesses originating from China. As soon as I realized what was causing all the access problems in November, I shut it down (it had reached 36GB by then) behind a password/login screen. The database had gotten corrupted, and I tried a restore from just before the spike in access but that didn't work. Thus, end of November. I still have the other daily backups so if there were any important additions in December, let me know and maybe they can be recovered. - Allen H.

(Color) Meteoroids
(Color) Meteoroids is a clone of the arcade hit Asteroids. It is a little unique in that
it requires 2 joysticks... One controls the spacship's direction itself, while the other controls the direction
of the gun on your spaceship. This game is one of the first 3rd party games put out for the Coco, and I believe that
it was eventually licensed to Radio Shack/Tandy and resold as Microbes... as it mysteriously disappeared from Spectral
Associates advertisements in 1982.
