Game Information Game Name: Moon (aka Matt) Patrol Released by: Atarisoft, 1984 (prototype) Original arcade game by: Irem, 1982 CV HSC High Score: NA TwinGalaxies High Score: 51,950 by Tom Duncan (Feb 2007) Settings: Beginner This game was suggested by: darthkur Contest Ends Saturday, 5 October at 12:00PM EST Contest Rules The HSC rules can be found here ROM File Moon Patrol for the ColecoVision was never commercially released. Atarisoft planned to release "Moon Patrol" and had a team working on a release. Either because of business issues between Coleco and Atari or the 1984 crash the game was never released. The team eventually leaked the rom altering the title screen to read "Selma Presents Matt Patrol" instead of the traditional "Moon Patrol". The game was developed by Matt Householder (hence the name change to "Matt") and it is believed that Selma also worked on the project. (thanks to Manoau2002 for the info). There are a number of hacked prototype roms floating aorund the internet. To ensure that everyone playing this round is using the same ROM, i.e. the one used to obtain the Twin Galaxies high score, please download the attached and either play on a real CV using a multicart or use your favourite emulator (blueMSX is recommended).

Gaztee Posted September 22, 2013 Share Posted September 22, 2013 (edited) Didn't have my camera ready, but got 9350. I'll try to have a go again later, but I need to be packing, revising & tidying up before my little trip across the pond!

jblenkle Posted September 24, 2013 Share Posted September 24, 2013 I've since switched to mostly playing this on real hardware, but does anyone know why this game runs so slow on ADAMem and Virtual ADAM and at normal speed on every other emulator I've tried?
