Ill just post the discord conversation here:

Heres one for you Spectre. We have the game sublogic Football (1986) in the collection which is currently running CGA. According to Moby its PCJR compatible and will present better graphics in that mode. Our copy boots up with PCJR set but after you "press up for one player" it gives an I\O error. Copy on oldgames is the same version. Know of any other versions out there that may not have the error?

Smiling Spectre Yesterday at 21:17 I believe, game is fine. Because it broke after reading the data (successfully), and doing nothing after that. But I found one note on the Pixellated Arcade:

At least one joystick required with IBM PCjr.

Can you activate joystick and try again? (I am bad with joysticks, you see)

Python Yesterday at 22:36 I tried, but no joy (pardon the pun). Maybe eXo will have an idea

i need to get this running in PCem to test there. See if it is a dosbox issue. Haven't had time though, as my pcem seems broken and I need to basically start over with it.

exoscoriae commented 3 years ago

as this is no longer a self booting pcjr floppy, I am unaware of how to run it in PCem.

I'm knocking this back to low priority as there is nothing I can do with it at this point.

seems a tandy version exists out there as well, from a youtube video I found.
