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
Nukewar is a strategic board game published by Avalon Hill in 1980. The game simulates global thermonuclear warfare, focusing on the geopolitical and military strategies of the Cold War era. Players take on the roles of superpowers, managing resources, alliances, and nuclear arsenals to achieve dominance or mutual destruction.
The game is notable for its detailed mechanics, including the use of a hexagonal grid map representing the Earth, with players deploying missiles, bombers, and submarines to strike enemy targets. It incorporates elements of diplomacy, resource management, and tactical decision-making, reflecting the complexities of nuclear conflict. The game's design emphasizes the high-stakes nature of its theme, with outcomes often hinging on careful planning and risk assessment.
Nukewar was part of Avalon Hill's broader catalog of war games, which were popular among strategy enthusiasts during the late 20th century. While the game's designer remains uncredited, it is often associated with Avalon Hill's reputation for producing complex and historically themed games. There is no direct evidence linking Nukewar to Commodore PET games, as Avalon Hill primarily focused on board games rather than computer software during this period.
