PIG (Atari 2600) 0.90

I've been working on an Atari 2600 version of the Jeopardy dice game Pig. It's a simple game with the goal being the first player to reach 100 points. Pig is a game of luck and some strategy. I've included the full and short rules from Wikipedia at the bottom of this post.

This version is one player vs the computer with five different levels of computer opponent available. Level 1 is plays very conservatively to it's own detriment while Level 5 plays quite strongly within a couple of percent of optimal Pig strategy.

Hopefully the UI is self explanatory but if there are any issues please let me know.

I'd welcome any feedback on the game, particularly on the chosen color schemes and whether the dice rolling sound effect is annoying.

Known Issues

Sound Effects and Music are quite sparse.

    But my software is 16.0.3 is that ok to hack?
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    16.0.3 support was added into Atmospheré, so it should be alright, but I'd prefer sticking with a lower firmware version just to be safe.
