Miner 2049er on the Atari 8-bit Computer | The SYSTEM-DEFINING Platformer!

Miner 2049er is a platform game game developed by Big Five Software and published in December 1982. It is set in a mine, where the player controls the Mountie Bounty Bob. The player controls Bounty Bob through multiple levels of a mine, with the goal of traversing all of the platforms in each level all while avoiding enemies and within a set amount of time.

Miner 2049er received positive press throughout 1983, appearing on best-of lists, with video game critics complimenting its colorful graphics, game design, and originality. Unlike most games at the time which received one or two ports for different computers and video game consoles, Miner 2049er was released for various home systems, with Kiren Hawken of Retro Gamer stating the game was released on a total of 22 different systems. Video magazine’s editors commented on the game’s popularity in January 1984, declaring it “the most widely played home electronic game of all time” and that “no home-arcade title has had the impact” that Miner 2049er had.
