Dangerous Dave

description Dangerous Dave Overview

Dangerous Dave is a 1988 single-player platformer developed by John Romero as a demonstration of his GraBASIC programming language. Originally designed for Apple II and MS-DOS systems, it showcased his skills to programmers and educators interested in the emerging BASIC dialects. The game’s demon theme and retro gameplay make it notable within early video game history, particularly for those studying computer science or interested in 1980s computing.
