MacNINJA
1989

As I continued learning how to program in MacFORTH I decided to create a new game. When working at
TRW, I noticed that in the breakroom the NINJA arcade game was one of the most popular. So I decided
to create a Macintosh version. After many months of working on MacNINJA, I decided to try the
Shareware market and uploaded my completed game to the CompuServe and Netscape internet sites.
After several months of being on the game forum at CompuServe, MacNINJA had over 3 million
downloads.
Unfortunately, the returns on Shareware did not match the download counts. After a year, I had only
received between 600 to 700 payments.
