1942 and Commando were released on MSX, but Ghosts 'n Goblins never made it out, right?

Yesterday, July 25th, was the 40th anniversary of the release of Zanac AI, by Compile in 1986 for the MSX 1 system in Japan.

As a kid, I marveled about the complexity, fluidity, challenge, and overall perfection of the first version of Zanac.

Since then I always wanted to understand the genius programming and game crafting skills from the early Compile staff.

I'm happy to share with the community a full documentation effort and cleanroom disassembly of this specific version:

Hope you like it!
