Ever wondered how Atari 800 game developers were able to create such great games in the 80s on such limited hardware? Apparently a Cross Assembler was used to help out here: The Atari CAMAC Cross Assembler. It was running on a hardware named "Data General MV/8000".
Recently, some historical interested people rebuild the development enviroment using an an emulator and managed to assemble the Atari classic DIG-DUG, as they say, the first time in more than 40 years and apparently, just like (some of) the development was done back in the 80s.
If you like, have a cup of tea and enjoy ;-)
