Drop the stuntman into the haywagon, but don't hit the horse or the driver.
The game has been patched by Daxeria to run in OS 7-9 without inadvertently switching to the Finder. This System 3.2 boot disk also includes unmodified copies of all known versions: 1.0, 1.2, 1.5, 1.6 and 2.0.
Pascal source code could be ordered from the author and is now preserved here.
A Mac OS X version is available from Antell Software. (Look for "StuntCopter" halfway down the page.)
CompatibilityIn the default build of Mini vMac, you'll probably want to reduce emulation speed to 1x (Ctrl-S-Z) or 2x (Ctrl-S-1).

Thanks!
The source code was uploaded here: https://macintoshgarden.org/games/duane-blehms-source-code

I'm 9 years late, but I second the idea of also preserving an unpatched v2.0 for the sake of historical reference!
Also, a shame that the source code was never found.
I love this on my Mac SE. I just got the iOS version and it is awesome. I'm addicted to this game.

Ran StuntCopter in Mini vMac MacOS 7.0.1 and it ran great. Version 1.6 and 2 allow you to set the speed. I set it to Mac II.
I think this is fairly old news, but someone ported this game to iOS
I loved this game!!!
extra half star
Does anyone have the old version that included the source code? I understand that this was available from the author at the time for a small fee. Source code would be a rare and valuable addition here.
Hey Dax,
Thanks for this archive! Would you please include an unlatched version of 2.0, for the sake of historical reference. Also, a ReadMe file in the archive explaining that you've patched one of the files would also be helpful in--case someone gets a hold of the archive without seeing the explanatory text here at the Garden. Great to see all the versions in one archive, though.
Never gets old. Ha. What a blast.
No need to re-upload this, but the internal website system still not connect it to the d/l button.
External d/l mirror now added.
There's a version of this remade for the iPhone/iPod - http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/stuntcopter/id308733440?mt=8
It's only a dollar and a great nostalgia bomb
Seeing that stuntman splat into a pile of goo when he misses the cart still makes me smile.
Still fun today's standards.
