I think something like "Pat and Ed were inspired by Demon Attack" would be a good middle ground. Could be we all remember it differently.

The rewrite:

 

Space Cavern

 

Developer Apollo

Publisher Apollo

Release date 1982

Genre Action

Mode 1-2 Players

 

Company founder Pat Roper had flown programmer Ed Salvo to a Consumer Electronics Show to show him the Imagic video game Demon Attack. Impressed with Imagic’s game, Roper told developer Dan Oliver he wanted a game in similar fashion. Oliver, having learned MOS Technology 6502 just a few weeks previous, made his first Apollo game out of inspiration from Demon Attack.

are you still working on the homebrew section? There's many titles missing..........

I know a lot is missing on the homebrew side, but I felt I had to stop at some point, so I used the rarity guide on AtariAge as a goal and only included the games they had listed. If you know some homebrew games that need to be included then I can include them :)

Will include :) thanks

 

Also, if anyone has any input on the AtariAge label guide that is missing (I need mostly text) then that would be greatly appreciated. And is there any extra hardware you would like to see, like the AtariVox+?

I meant to tell you that this was just A thru D off my homebrew list. And if you need links and/or more info on any of the titles above - just ask. I've been compiling the largest Atari VCS homebrew (hacks, demo, WIP, etc) spreadsheet (1k+ titles) for the past 3+ years.
