Romero > Screenshot of the instruction page.  I should capture the whole thing someday.
Romero > And here you see Jumpster in its menu system glory!
Romero > Here's the UpTime menu shell.....my game's icon wasn't too bad.
Romero > The back cover.  Notice the Applied Engineering ad.  Most people were afraid to touch their interface cards but these cartoon bozos have no qualms about possibly blowing up this $130 card.

Make sure you have an iron will or you won't survive Krazy Kobra!
Romero > The cover of the issue.  They were very big sleeves that the disks were packaged into.  I had to scan this thing 4 times it's so big.
Romero > The famous UpTime menu shell program.  Shittiest icon award goes to Krazy Kobra - thanks guys!
Romero > When you boot the disk this is the menu/shell you get to navigate the contents from.

Don't press 'H' for help - it's just a picture.  Thank you.
Romero > Pyramids of Egypt was published on UpTime Disk Monthly in 1987.  This is the front cover of the packaging material within which was the Apple II 5.25 floppy disk.

DEADLY DEALINGS ON THE NILE!

Somehow the Nile river figures into the game now....even though it's all just mazes and cobras.  And a stomach-bleeding main character named Mike (named after my first son Michael. Just kidding, Michael was born 3 years after I wrote this game.)
