+therealbountybob Posted February 25, 2018 Share Posted February 25, 2018 We'll start of with the two runner up games from the last two polls, surely something has to give this time Poll closes after current Winter Olympics round. Rainbow Walker Faily easy in the scheme of things, fun Q*Bert style hopping on the scrolling rainbow changing the squares' colours, complete each vertical row to lock it in. Download XEX, Atarimania Info Millipede A real 10/10 superbly addictive and intense Centepede and then some. Fandal has a version with the PAL glitches fixed. Play 1984 version with title screen animations. Download XEX (PAL fixed), Atarimania Info Guardians of the Gorn with Mr. TNT A new one to me! Looks like you move on the grid and bits disappear - so we could play this along with the fabulous Mr. TNT Download XEX, Atarimania Info, Mr. TNT XEX Info Buried Buck$ A Tom Hudson classic; bomb the ground to excavate the dollars, watch out flooding! Download XEX, Atarimania Info Jumpman Jr Classic platformer! Download XEX, Atarimania Info Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ballyalley Posted February 25, 2018 Share Posted February 25, 2018 Wow, there are so many good games to choose from in this round! I chose three games. If we get in order of preference in our personal votes, then mine is: Millipede, Jumpman Jr. and Buried Bucks. I seem to remember trying to play Mr. TNT a few years back and either not understanding it properly or it had some sort of issue. Adam Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adam Yes I thought we'd pack some of the good games in to start the season off! From memory: On Mr TNT you move along the threads and try and strand the baddies by cutting them off - I've no idea about Guardians of the Gorn I just loaded it to check it worked but it might be similar. Also might be like Alternity which was a good prototype we played a while back Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carlsson Posted February 25, 2018 Share Posted February 25, 2018 I'll do something different this time and vote for the games I have no clue about, with the firm belief the choices are carefully curated. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+slx Posted February 28, 2018 Share Posted February 28, 2018 Everything but Millipede will be fine for me. Still need to get some Skiing action done, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedThunder Posted March 1, 2018 Share Posted March 1, 2018 I only voted for two, being Buried Bucks and Jumpman Jr with my main pref being Jumpman. Just had a quick go only on Buried Bucks and was wondering how complicated a Worms type game would be to make on Atari 800. Destructible terrain, artillery type. ?

RedThunder Posted March 4, 2018 Share Posted March 4, 2018 If Jumpman makes it, perhaps will could use some of the levels from this thread :-) http://atariage.com/forums/topic/255262-jumpman-level-design-contest 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gury Posted March 5, 2018 Share Posted March 5, 2018 I really hope Rainbow Walker will make it this time or very soon I like this game, childhood memories... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
