After rolling up a new random world and actually reading the manual, let's see what happens!

What happens turns out to be a lot of roaming around the open ocean before finally finding any amount of land. But, the expedition does return safely from its initial foray into the unknown, so that's a start! Though I do wish there were a distinction in the map between "unexplored" and "ocean".

I intend to return to this periodically in what I'm hoping will be a weekly mid-Saturday stream. Other things may be streamed instead depending on what I feel like at the time, but I'm feeling pretty good about this for now, so expect to see more!

Ah, and after checking the emulator documentation, there's why I was having trouble with the Atari function keys. F1 maps to the Help button that I forgot was there and doesn't do anything in this game; Start is F2. And F3 is Select, F4 is Option, and F5 is Reset.

My earlier overview of the game is here: https://youtu.be/ywdXDFpdQkA
