Anyone need a stand-alone game front end for PC?

I've created a front end for Atari 2600 games using Javatari as the emulator.

I can try and create one for you too. No guarantees on time frame and extra features.

 

What I'd need:

* Picture of cartridge front label.

* Optional graphic to use as loading/splash screen

* Link to use for "more games"

* Game ROM.

* Instructions in plain text

 

THE LICENSE FOR JAVATARI USE:

1) We mention Javatari in a clearly visible way in the front page of the launcher. Something like a "powered by Javatari" message at the bottom of the page.

 

2) We give credit to Paulo Augusto Peccin. Its ok the way it is now in the "Game Information" page.

 

3) We include a link to javatari.org in the "Game Information" page near the place you mention the emulator.

 

4) If the game is to be sold commercially, the seller of the game must make donations to the Javatari project. Any value is appreciated.

 

It's a multi step process involving several tools so creating each game is unfortunately a manual process for me.

 

Thanks again to Paulo Augusto Peccin for Javatari and http://www.labelmaker2600.com/

I am proud to say RHillFake was the first developer to take me up on my offer. Hope his game gets more exposure this way

I'll have to stop offering this as a service for the time being. The AGPL v3 license Javatari uses is just confusing enough that before I go any further I'll get Paulos blessing for batari BASIC users to use this front-end for personal and commercial use. Hopefully this can be straightened out soon.

UPDATE: Me and Paulo are working out terms. Part of it is a visible Javatari logo which I'd proudly put on. The other is batari BASIC developers must donate toward Javatari development if they use it commercially. This only effects people who have asked for and use my front end.

 

UPDATE II: I just have to make the changes to my front end and get Paulos OK. Should be back in business soon!

Do you know if the donation thing is one time payment per game or if it is a royalty, like 10 cents for a dollar?

"If the game is to be sold commercially, the seller of the game must make donations to the Javatari project. Any value is appreciated." - Paulo

 

So, at least one donation of any size (besides zero ). Kind of like my games on http://theloon.itch.io/ (pay what you deem worthy)

Lol, thanks.

We're back in business! Paulos requested changes are in the front-end I made. I've updated the first post with his terms.

I'm taking requests again! Same horrible lead time.
