bBasic Problem
I enjoy making games for Batari Basic, but I'm beginning to feel that I should keep them to myself. All these games I've been making are cheap imitations of real ones. It's just with over 900+ titles (or however many of them there are), the Atari 2600 is a really difficult system to try to make new games for. The truth is, I have a few ideas for games, but can't be pulled off with Atari 2600. When Donkey Kong Country was new, I designed a 6-world platform video game. Same goes for Super Mario 64. I've thought of new weapons for Mario Kart that aren't even in the DS version. The only thing I haven't acted upon is the really stupid video game idea about being in a supermarket and ramming into people with your shopping cart on purpose, because I know that I always want to do that. Maybe I should just give Batari Basic up and play the games that other people make/made because, when it comes right down to it, I don't really have anything all that new to offer in the world of Atari 2600 games.
