BIGHMW Posted September 16, 2018 Share Posted September 16, 2018 I know having played it in the arcade (about twice) at Castle Golf in Van Nuys, CA that I have always wanted to see this game for the 5200, by far it would be one of the best for the trak-ball. I know that it's originally a vector-based game but I think if Keithen Hayenga can do such a magnificent job on Tempest somebody should port this classic 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Albert Posted September 16, 2018 Share Posted September 16, 2018 Quantum is such a cool and unique game. Not sure how many were made, but I've only seen it a few times. Would be an awesome title on the 5200 with the Trak-Ball controller!! Not sure how difficult it would be to create on the 5200. ..Al 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adamchevy Posted September 16, 2018 Share Posted September 16, 2018 I’ve never played this game. Any game that utilizes the 5200 Trak Ball is a must own for me. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+sramirez2008 Posted September 16, 2018 Share Posted September 16, 2018 I've never seen this game in the arcades, but will look out for it. Very cool! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There were only ever two places that I saw Quantum in the wild, and the other one was on the other side of the Atlantic. And yep, in full agreement re: a 5200 / 8-bit port. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrekMD Posted September 17, 2018 Share Posted September 17, 2018 This would be cool to see on the 5200! It would work on the Vectrex too! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LaserCat Posted September 17, 2018 Share Posted September 17, 2018 I am confident that I played this back in the day. Absolutely would buy. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Albert Posted September 17, 2018 Share Posted September 17, 2018 This would be cool to see on the 5200! It would work on the Vectrex too! I'm not sure how well it would play without a trak-ball! ..Al 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
killersquirel Posted September 17, 2018 Share Posted September 17, 2018 I would love to see this come out on the Atari 5200. I would definitely love to see it utilize the track ball controller. That would be pure bliss! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
inthe80s Posted September 17, 2018 Share Posted September 17, 2018 Another, would be perfect with the Trak-ball....would be awesome either way though! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inky Posted September 17, 2018 Share Posted September 17, 2018 Has someone been listening to Pie Factory? I'd love to see this one too! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Cafeman Posted September 17, 2018 Share Posted September 17, 2018 I never heard of this game. It makes me think of a cross between Qix and Nights into Dreams. I wonder how involved it's area calculations are to determine if you have captured a sprite object. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arcadegeek23 Posted September 24, 2018 Share Posted September 24, 2018 I think it would be awesome. Would love to have some more track ball games for my 5200 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
