Presents

So I got offered a thing to do with the Cedar Games intro. Between it and the title screen, put the word PRESENTS in. Just thought of a goofy thing to do with it. Make it change color with each new game. For the Oranges game, I will make it orange. Funny thing about the Oranges game for Odyssey 2: Technically, the color I'm using is its yellow. Which looks like orange, so I'm able to make the game at all. If it hadn't been for this fact, I would have had to make it something like "Giant Peas." And have the PRESENTS be green.

The design of the game screen came from the fact that only one grid color could be used. So I colored it the opposite of orange so that oranges could easily be displayed as well as have the game be more colorful than just being a black screen. And so I placed the Orange-O-Matic off screen which is good because I can't design machines very well. The Game Gear one, which I will try to port to the Master System, is just a box.

I got my Master System up and working. So I decided to get an Everdrive for it to replace the one I broke. I actually found the controller for it. I guess it's true: Buy something you already have on eBay and the thing you have will show up. Figures, since the cheapest one I could find was $16. Why are Master System controllers so expensive?
