Notes

Clam Digger: The Game

Clamdigger is a retro computer game previously lost to the ravages of time until being referenced on the Cartoon Network show "Aqua Teen Hunger Force" (03x04 - "Super Computer"). The game was written and produced by Adrian Damenschnitzel and released in 1983 for the Commodore 64 personal computer. Although the machine had graphical capabilities, Clamdigger was written for the machine's 40 x 25 character text mode. Despite its text-based nature, Clamdigger is an action game where animation is achieved through cleverly shifting text characters around to give the impression of movement, as seen on mobile phone and *nix console-based games.
