SpaceHunter

Nice and explained very well....I'll take one! Thank you!

1 x board for me as well....let me know if you need early payment!

Pardon my ignorance, but what is needed to write to this cartridge?

Yes, kudos for sharing the source code! I started reading material on ACTION! to write my own games, but I really like this approach of using cc65 on modern technology. The game is awesome brings me back to the 80s with it's look and feel, game play music was treat as well. Thanks Baktra!

Thats what I thought kenjennings. Why would they pay me for the game but not include it in their magazine? Maybe there was a conflict of interest with the movie Spacehunter? At the time I didn't care, I used the money to get connected online by purchasing the 850 interface and 830 acoustic modem. Fun times for a young teenager! Good stuff FifthPlayer, very similar stories. I'll definitely check out books by compute.

Thanks for the 2 links Mike. Thanks for taking a look Stephen and AtariGeezer. I know I have a printed listing of the code somewhere in my house. Maybe one day I will stumble on it.

Hey Atari Friends, I wrote a BASIC game, "Spacehunter" on my Atari 800 some time ago, back in 83-84. I submitted my game to COMPUTE! magazine hoping they would accept it in their magazine. Not only did they acknowledge my letter and accept my entry, I was awarded $400 for my prize which was an absolute surprise for a 14 year old back then. I never got to see it published and to my knowledge the game never made it in any COMPUTE! publication that I have reviewed. Anyhow, I was thinking/hoping someone here on these forums may have better resources than I do that could verify that my game did make the COMPUTE! publication or provide any information about it. Thanks, -Joe

tjb, thanks for the links! Much appreciated!

I'll look into AtariMax??? I've contacted B and C and he/she wanted around $75 for the cartridge and manual. Seems a bit steep to me, but what do I know

What's a reasonable price for the MAC 65 cartridge and manual? What would you pay? Thanks!

Just bought it Thanks guys! Now, if only I could find the OSS ACTION! Cartridge/Toolkit and manual.

Does anyone know if this cable will work for the Atari 800 micro? Please see ebay link below: http://cgi.ebay.com/Atari-800-800XL-1200XL...1QQcmdZViewItem Thanks!

Warerat, Could you please give us an update? I'm very interested in this project of yours! Thanks!
