The Floby.SDK is a 5.25 'Special Format' (non ProDOS/non DOS3.3 - self-booting disk).
It's the very first program that our 1WSW Cofounder, Olivier Goguel ever did for the Apple II and IIgs computers.  It's version 9.8, which was the last version of this game.  Flobynoid is a nifty fast-action arcade game, much like Arkanoid.  It can be booted and played with any Apple II that has 64K RAM or can be played on the IIgs.

(PLEASE NOTE: THE GAME AND ITS 'SOURCE BOOT 0' TEXT FILE OF SOURCE CODES ARE ALL IN FRENCH)

Flobynoid has a boot mode that will recognize what model of Apple II, it's being booted from, including a GS Mode.  It keeps track of the number of times it was booted, uses DHR graphics, has good quality 8-bit sound effects, with music and allows the saving of your high scores.

You'll need the Shrinkit (P8) v3.0.1 program to allow you to unshrink the Floby.SDK file, as a 5.25 self-booting disk.  I've included the Shrinkit (P8) FREEWARE v3.0.1 program, for such use, in the (FESSI.SHK) accessory utility, 'Flobynoid' editor and files, including the 'Boot 0' text file that contains the 'Flobynoid' special boot source codes.  This SHK file is titled - FESSI.SHK and contains; Binary Menu (a P8 Application, to use as a launch for all launchable/viewable binary files), Cracker Hello (an AppleSoft basic program for use only on a 5.25 DOS 3.3 disk - using it as the 
initilization HELLO file when formatting a 5.25 DOS 3.3 disk), FlobynoidEditor (a binary file for use only on a formatted 5.25 DOS 3.3 disk, with the inclusion of the files (NEW CHARPIC10 and RWTS). 

Hopefully (even being all in french), this RAREWARE game for use on all Apple II's with 64k and also for use on the IIgs(ROMS 01 and 03), with the Editor and BOOT SOURCE CODES, can serve some useful and entertaining value, for programmers and game players.

Now you have 'THE VERY FIRST PROGRAM' ever made by the legendary 'Olivier (Delta) aka (GOGS) Goguel'.  So, learn some FRENCH and enjoy it.
