GameboyReviewer Posted December 19, 2008 Share Posted December 19, 2008 Hello everyone I completed a great Christmas hack of the true classic, in this version you play as Santa in outer space, I modded the ship to somewhat look like santa. The astroids themselves have been changed to a Present, Candy cane, Gingerbread men, Gum Drops, and the UFO, what kind of christmas would it be with out a ufo, lol. Tell me what you think?

Wickeycolumbus Posted December 19, 2008 Share Posted December 19, 2008 (edited) Funny, I started working on a Christmas themed Space Invaders hack but havent worked on it in over a week. Edited December 19, 2008 by Wickeycolumbus Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atari Dogs Posted December 30, 2008 Share Posted December 30, 2008 I am home with the kids today because my wife is sick with the flu. I thought I would make myself a version of this game since there is not a holiday cartridge. I change the smiling face to martian kids. Santa is brought to Mars, where he gives (shoots) the presents to Martian kids. The the martian kids turn (get shot) into presents for Earth kids. Watch out for the evil adult Martians in UFOs. I never saw the movie, so I worked from what I quickly read on the internet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Atari Dogs Posted December 31, 2008 Share Posted December 31, 2008 (edited) Here is my adjustments. The sleigh is hard to make. Maybe it is just because it is past Christmas, but it just does not have a Christmas feel to me. Maybe a title screen would help, but adding one is way beyond my abilities. Anyone ever see Santa Claus Conquers the Martians? Xmas_game6.bin Edited December 31, 2008 by Atari Dogs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just need to order the more boards from AA. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xZanU Posted January 27, 2009 Share Posted January 27, 2009 Dumb question. Is there a BIN to A78 converter? I wanted to try the game out on the pro system emulator (as we are playing asteroids in the 7800 HSC right now) but do not see an open .bin option on ProSystem : ( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lucky Man Posted December 17, 2009 Share Posted December 17, 2009 Somehow I missed this hack last year. Maybe because it's not in the 2600 section. But I like it! Atari Dogs -- The changes you made are very nice and I especially like that title. I've gotta see that movie now! Wickeycolumbus -- What ever happened to your Space Invaders Christmas hack?

I can give you the source too if you'd like. invaders.bin Edited December 22, 2009 by Wickeycolumbus Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
