Paratrooper under Virtual PC

Ah... The one, the original Paratrooper. There are many times when you fall in love with a game - only to find out that it is a clone of a more revered. Thankfully - in the case of Paratrooper - this was the first version of this style of game that I came across. Originally released in 1982 (in all of its four color, CGA glory) this game runs surprisingly well under Virtual PC:Paratrooper under Virtual PC

In fact - it is preferable to run under Virtual PC - because (as I remembered) this game does not provide anyway to exit other than to reset your computer (or virtual machine). You can download this game from: https://www.dosgames.com/files/ptrooper.zip
