About

KGB is a compact arcade-style shooter for the classic Macintosh in which the player takes aim at an evil software dictator. Released in 1996 by Joe Flores, it comes from the same author who produced the earlier title SkyDive and was distributed through the Info-Mac archive as a small, fast pick-up-and-play diversion.GameplayKGB is built around a single arcade conceit: shoot the on-screen "evil software dictator" before he gets you. The pacing and controls are typical of mid-1990s shareware action games, favoring quick reflexes over strategy or storyline.Author and lineageThe game was released by Joe Flores (jflores@slate.Mines.EDU). The submission notes flag KGB as a follow-up from "the same guys who brought you SkyDive," placing it in a small family of indie Mac action titles distributed through Info-Mac in the mid-1990s.DistributionKGB shipped as a BinHex 4.0 (.hqx) encoded archive in the Info-Mac game/arc collection as kgb-10.hqx, the standard distribution path for arcade titles in that era's Mac shareware ecosystem.Era and platformThe 1.0 release dates to 1996 and targets classic Mac OS, fitting the System 7 / early Mac OS 8 generation of shareware arcade games. Macintosh Garden categorizes it under Arcade.
