Place Logo Here Posted December 22, 2013 Share Posted December 22, 2013 There seems to be a lot of interest here in this game as a cart and, if that happens, I want to put myself down for a copy as well. I can't wait until the XM cart is available, but I think this would be a strong standalone cart as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reverendshoebox Posted December 24, 2013 Share Posted December 24, 2013 Mr. PacManPlus: This game is friggin' amazing. Thank you for your efforts in this, as well as your numerous efforts to bring the many faces of the Great Yellow One to us via one of His most sacred chosen vessels, the 7800.

bikeguychicago Posted January 2, 2014 Share Posted January 2, 2014 I would love to see this in a non-XM cart as well. And if you're looking for future ideas, Bentley Bear's original quest would be a nice surprise (with trackball support, of course ). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AtariLynx Lover Posted January 13, 2014 Share Posted January 13, 2014 Do you have the rights to the name of Bentley Bear, out of curiosity? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spiffyone Posted March 1, 2014 Share Posted March 1, 2014 What's the status of the project? Haven't seen anything in a while. If carts are ready to be ordered, I'd like to be put on the list. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
8th lutz Posted March 2, 2014 Share Posted March 2, 2014 (edited) What's the status of the project? Haven't seen anything in a while. If carts are ready to be ordered, I'd like to be put on the list. The game is completed. There is a 3 reasons why the game isn't on cartridge yet. 1.) The size of the game is an issue right since the biggest Cartridge size currently available is 48K for the Atari 7800 without any testing. 2.) Bigger game rom cartridge boards is being tested right with Bentley Bear, but isn't ready for making cartridges of the game yet I think. 3.) The sound chip Bentley Bear doesn't use the sound chip found on a stock Atari 7800. That means it needs the Atari 7800 XM or a sound chip built inside a game cartridge. The Atari 7800 XM isn't ready and the cartridges with the ability to add a sound chip isn't ready yet either.

+SpiceWare Posted March 12, 2014 Share Posted March 12, 2014 The new 1.0.2-Experimental build of the multi-system emulator OpenEmu now has 7800 support, so I can finally play Bentley Bear OpenEmu's for the Mac. Here it is running on the Mac mini that drives my HDTV: I've got a couple Playstation 3 controllers paired with it via bluetooth, works well for the games. Now to figure out how to play, I keep getting killed at this point (granted I only tried a couple rounds). OpenEmu hasn't been out long, but I'm quite impressed with what they've done so far. I know there's a build of MESS for the Mac, but I gave up trying it get it to work (I've always considered MESS to be very appropriately named). 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PacManPlus Posted March 13, 2014 Author Share Posted March 13, 2014 Cool! The second button is used for running and shooting (like SMB), so you probably need that to jump over the rock and fire Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+SpiceWare Posted March 13, 2014 Share Posted March 13, 2014 Figured it out last night when I noticed Bentley would slightly speed up when I was rapid-firing. Stayed up late and made it to Level 1 Round 3 when I decided I'd best be off to bed. I'm paying for it this morning SMB = Super Mario Brothers? If so, I bet that explains why I could never get very high on that damn flag at the end of the level. Never had an NES, though I have tried playing the game a few times via emulation. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
