After BASIC Pac-Man, I decided to see how much of another arcade classic I could squeeze into Extended Color BASIC!
BASIC Burger Time for the Tandy Color Computer 3 recreates all six arcade stages, with pepper, falling ingredients, enemy rides, chain reactions, bonuses and saved high scores.

The graphics were hand-drawn as 8 x 8 versions of the arcade sprites. The game uses the CoCo 3's HGET, HPUT and HBUFF graphics commands to animate the Chef, enemies and individual ingredient pieces. The sound effects and musical cues use the built-in PLAY command. Careful variable ordering, compact stage files and packed sound data help it all fit and move in BASIC. See the GitHub repository for more details.
The six stages repeat after Stage 6. An extra Chef is awarded every 20,000 points, and collecting a bonus gives you another pepper. The Best Five Players table is saved to disk, with animated initials entry after a qualifying score. There is also a Stage Manager for creating and editing your own kitchens.
This is an edited gameplay montage, with the original game audio, showing all six stages and highlights from the run.
