Gandy Dancer

Gandy Dancer is a 1-player arcade game for the TRS-80.

The player attempts to navigate 5 hobos, one at a time, from one side of a railroad yard to the other and then back again carrying delicious Mulligan Stew. The player must dodge between railroad cars on the way up the screen, and then jump between flatcar, open boxcar, and platform on the way down. The player tries to navigate each hobo into one of the 5 slots at the bottom of the screen that they started from. The player gets a total of 5 minutes each game, and has 5 hobos. It's game over when time runs out or all hobos are lost. There are 4 levels of difficulty, which control rail car speed.
