Game input holds PET matrix keys down until you physically release them, which is best for arcade games. Type input keeps the original short-tap queue for entering BASIC commands.
Charset Auto lets PET software switch normally. Graphics or Business forces the selected character ROM for compatibility/testing.
Changing RAM or ROM resets the PET. Some programs need ROM2/ROM4 or 16K/32K.
The sound slider controls the emulated PET VIA speaker. Modern browsers require a click before audio can start, so Start Game also enables audio.
The emulator has an IEEE-488 device at address 8 for loading/saving .prg files.

Game Notes
"B-1 Nuclear Bomber" is a game developed for the Commodore PET and published by Avalon Hill, a company known for its board and computer games. The game was released in the early 1980s, during a period when Avalon Hill was transitioning into computer game development. It is a strategic simulation game where players take on the role of a B-1 bomber pilot, tasked with completing missions involving nuclear strikes.
The gameplay involves navigating the bomber through various scenarios, managing fuel, evading enemy defenses, and successfully delivering payloads to targets. The game is text-based, typical of early computer games, and relies on strategic decision-making rather than graphical elements. It reflects the Cold War-era themes prevalent in many games of the time, focusing on military strategy and nuclear warfare.
Avalon Hill's foray into computer games, including "B-1 Nuclear Bomber," was part of their broader effort to adapt their board game expertise to the growing personal computer market. While the game is not widely remembered today, it represents an early example of military simulation games on home computers. Specific details about the developer or the exact release date remain unclear, as documentation from that era is limited.
