Defender 8-??-82

This is what assumed to be the final version of Michael Colburn's Defender. What a difference a few weeks can make! Not only is this version more polished than Rev. 0, but features a full compliment of sounds and bug fixes. This version stands up nicely to Steve Bakers released version, but it's still lacking a bit in the enemy graphics. Interestingly the sounds seem to be very close to Steve Bakers version, so one has to wonder if the same audio programmer worked on both.
