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. D64 disk images can also be inspected for PRG files.

Game Notes
The gameplay of "Tank!" involves controlling a tank in a top-down or grid-based environment, where the objective is likely to navigate through obstacles, destroy enemy targets, or complete specific missions. Given the hardware limitations of the Commodore PET, the graphics would have been simple, relying on character-based visuals rather than detailed sprites. The game would have utilized the PET's keyboard for input, as joysticks were not commonly supported on the platform.
Unfortunately, specific details about the game's mechanics, levels, or reception are scarce, as documentation and preserved copies of "Tank!" are rare. The game is a lesser-known title compared to other Commodore PET games of the era, and its legacy is primarily of interest to retro computing enthusiasts and historians. If more information exists, it would likely be found in old catalogs, advertisements, or user manuals from CodeWorks - Cursor.
