san-d-2000 Posted August 1, 2001 Share Posted August 1, 2001 I noticed "2600 Jammed" a couple of days ago at the Hozervideo site, I was wondering is it the same as Crazy Valet? They look almost identical. Sandy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DEBRO Posted August 1, 2001 Share Posted August 1, 2001 They are the same concept. Thomas asked Brain if he'd mind if he created a version of Crazy Valet (taking the idea a little further) and Brain didn't mind. Both are great games even though the concept is still the same.

san-d-2000 Posted August 1, 2001 Author Share Posted August 1, 2001 Maybe Brian's name should be on the label aswell, as he created the basic part of the game. San. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eckhard Stolberg Posted August 1, 2001 Share Posted August 1, 2001 Actually the game is based on a board game called Rush Hour. Since it has a pretty simple setup Brian created a version of it for the VCS. But since he was new at VCS programming he only managed to fit 26 levels into his first version. Thomas liked the game so much, that he decided to program a new version from scratch just to see how many levels he could fit in. His version ended up with 600 levels. Thomas asked Brians approval before he released his version and Brian didn't mind. So the only thing that Brian could take credit for on Thomas' version is that he was the one who started Thomas' interest in the game. Ciao, Eckhard Stolberg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

san-d-2000 Posted August 1, 2001 Author Share Posted August 1, 2001 Eckhard, Looks like I might have to order one, 600 levels sounds good! Do you also know if the lineup off the cars is different each time you boot up the game? that way you don´t have to work your way through all the puzzles which you already know by hart. later, Sandy.

Thomas Jentzsch Posted August 2, 2001 Share Posted August 2, 2001 Hi Sandy, don't worry, the 600 games are grouped into 6 groups of difficulty levels AND inside those levels you can play puzzle by puzzle or randomly select a puzzle. And Jammed knows the minimal moves to a solution, so you even might want to play a solved puzzle again, to find a better or optimal solution. Have fun!

san-d-2000 Posted August 2, 2001 Author Share Posted August 2, 2001 hey Thomas, thanks for the info, btw why don´t you come to the Eurocon later on this year, and maybe release a Eurocon exclusive game later, Sandy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MattyXB Posted August 2, 2001 Share Posted August 2, 2001 Hi Fish, do you know which number has mine? Where can I see this? Or is my game unlimited? Must I play it complete to see the number? And THX at Fish for this great game. I love it too. Matthias Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
