This should be in breaking news.
Shouldn't the "kids" be able to program up something similar in a couple of afternoons by now?
I would assume that they were using one of the simpler computers like the Color Computer 2 or 3. Those computers included a users manual that contained source code for a handful of simple programs. Some stored data, there was a simple game or two, a basic calculator, and a couple programs that did basic animations and drew fractal "fireworks" on the screen.
Since they were demo programs, it's unlikely that they even had names, so you'll probably never find them on the Internet. Even if you did, they were written in Tandy Basic and won't run on modern PC's.
If you really want the programs, do some googling on Tandy Color Computer users guides or manuals. You might get lucky and find one that's been scanned somewhere.

My first "real" computer game was "688 Attack Sub." You played it head to head with a friend over a modem connection. Anyone remember that one? Anone have that one on disk?
