MrBeefy Posted June 4, 2018 Share Posted June 4, 2018 I have been following the Evil Magician II game for awhile now since the first EMR was one of my first homebrews. It seems EMR 2 has been ready for a long time with no cart release in the store. Which homebrews do you know are finished and would like to see released officially? My list so far. 2600: EMR II DUNGEON 2 (think it is now at least) Sword of Surtr 7800: Froggie *edit* added game. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AtariBrian Posted June 4, 2018 Share Posted June 4, 2018 I think EMR 2 is way over due . Hoping it will be soon . 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Gemintronic Posted June 4, 2018 Share Posted June 4, 2018 Besides Treasure of Tarmin? I've got a few I haven't had physical releases of including Balloon Girl. It's a side scrolling game with ONE button to control everything. Hoping it would be accessibility controller friendly. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know it was on the INTV. Sword of Surtr is one to add to my 2600 list. It looks like it is in the vein of the AD&D games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
atarifan88 Posted June 4, 2018 Share Posted June 4, 2018 Treasure of Tarmin is an unreleased Prototype (not a homebrew): http://atariage.com/software_page.php?SoftwareLabelID=858 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hizzy Posted June 4, 2018 Share Posted June 4, 2018 Pacman 8k EMR II - I heard this is delayed because there's no one to do the cartridge art Air Hockey Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
digdugnate Posted June 4, 2018 Share Posted June 4, 2018 this is more a re-release rather than a 'finished homebrew', i guess, but I'd like to see Boulder Dash out again for the 2600 because it looks frickin' awesome. I think it was a licensing thing with First Star, tho (but don't hold me to that, lol) 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cambouis de l'Atari Posted June 4, 2018 Share Posted June 4, 2018 I think it was a licensing thing with First Star, tho (but don't hold me to that, lol) That's correct, they had a deal with First star for 250 cartridges only. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+sixersfan105 Posted June 6, 2018 Share Posted June 6, 2018 Froggie for sure, but only the POKEY version is finished as of now. TIA version is still being fine-tuned by the author, last I heard. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+sixersfan105 Posted June 7, 2018 Share Posted June 7, 2018 I want the TIA personally. Right, I know, thats why I posted what I did. Your OP was talking about games you want that are finished but not yet released. TIA Froggie is not yet finished. Thats all I was stating. Fingers crossed it will be done soon! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hizzy Posted June 7, 2018 Share Posted June 7, 2018 Did EMR I see a cart release? If someone could do art for I and II, maybe we could get a boxed set! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrBeefy Posted June 8, 2018 Author Share Posted June 8, 2018 Did EMR I see a cart release? If someone could do art for I and II, maybe we could get a boxed set! Yes EMR 1 had a limited run and I was lucky enough to snag one. If I was better at drawing I would do it. A package deal would be cool for those who don't have the first one.

iesposta Posted June 9, 2018 Share Posted June 9, 2018 Re: Froggie TIA music Right, I know, thats why I posted what I did. Your OP was talking about games you want that are finished but not yet released. TIA Froggie is not yet finished. Thats all I was stating. Fingers crossed it will be done soon! I missed that the TIA wasn't finished. I will leave it on the list anyways. Froggie (I think) uses the POKEY note data to play the TIA version. I offered my help and also suggested that the TIA version could sound a lot better, possibly detect 7800 XM Module and use that POKEY. Here is a no work done, to TIA conversion. While far from Pokey, I just wanted to quickly show something that sounded better. Frogger music 2600 TIA music example: frogger426.bin Listen at your own risk. The longer it plays, the stranger the conversion gets. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
