Disassembly of the code of the MSX-1 BOOGA-BOO game
This is a disassembly of the Z80 MSX-1 code of the MSX-1 “BOOGA-BOO” game.
This was the first game I played in my Sony HB-20P when I was a child, probably eight years old.
La Pulga is considered one of the first games made in Spain, and it’s a very well known work by Francisco Suárez and Francisco Portalo (“Paco & Paco”. Book here: http://www.bugabootheflea.com/). However, the MSX version was wrote by two persons about whom we known almost nothing nowadays. A complete mystery that absolutely puzzles me. The only thing that we know about the authors of the MSX version is the short notice that they showed in the game: “Quicksilva presents BOOGA-BOO. By Steve & Ann Haigh”.
Discovering all the thoughts of its creators as I was deciphering each byte has simply been as amazing as addictive.
I hope you retro-lovers will enjoy it too :)

The main file is disassembly.asm. Compile it with: z80asm disassembly.asm
It should generate a a.bin file with the following SHA sum: 9a63f2a6064a8e28f7251f78c3e91672f5de5253.
If you want to create a CAS file, simply join the HEADER file together with a.bin and rename it to BOOGA.CAS.
