Ah! Reliability 100

I shortly considered creating a cheat sheet for Barren Planet, but came to the conclusion it would be useless. The game loop is intuitive and you managed to craft a game that is a pleasure to play using the keyboard. The CGA graphics are also nice and readable.

Barren Planet reminds me of both Military Madness (Nectaris) for PCE and Dune 2.

I fixed my incredibly silly mistake and renamed the cheat sheet: https://cheatography.com/tme520/cheat-sheets/ossuary-for-msdos-keyboard-mapping/

I play the two games on my Book8088, they are exactly what I was looking for to enjoy that odd piece of hardware.

Yes, there are only five keys for Barren Planet... or seven if you count the choice of Control, Enter or Space for Fire. I *should* have added shortcut keys to it, but that didn't occur to me until after it was released.
