Whats the name of that old Apple II game

It was kinda like Combat, you fly a little plane around and shoot down other planes. When you shot down a plane, a little guy would parachute down and you could finish him off.

Only thing I can think of which comes close is Choplifter. And yes, loderunner was awesome. Making custom maps was fun too.

Anyone remember the name of the game where you did math problems, then it would let you fly a fighter jet and give you ammo for every math problem you got right?

Anyone remember playing Dark Castle? One of the first computer games I've played.

I remember a game called Math Blaster Plus (or some iteration of that). Maybe that was it? There were a lot of different modes in the game, but we only played a few at school.

I remember it having slightly better graphics than that, though. :offended:

It's an old DOS game called Paratrooper. Not sure if that was actually available for Apple platforms as well though.
