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
BRICK is a simple timing game in which you try to stop a moving block before it reaches the right edge of the screen. To get a high score, try to stop as close to the right edge as possible without hitting the "window" drawn on the right side.
The gimmick is that the block disappears partway across the screen—in a random location each time—so you must remember how fast the block was moving and guess at the best time to stop it. The instructions say you must press the Y key to stop the brick, but you can actually press any key.
