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
SHOOT is a simple timing and reflex game. A PETSCII cross drops from the top of the screen, and you have to press a key at just the right moment to time your shot. I thought at first that you had to try and lead the target, but actually, you're just trying to stop the falling target at the moment it passes the height of the barrel of your gun. Hitting the target results in the tamest explosion ever.
You set the speed of the falling target by choosing 1 of 5 levels. Timing at the fastest speed is tricky; I only managed to score 2/10 even after a bit of practice.
