Mega Man 2600 demo game (binary)

[Mega Man 2600 demo game (binary)]

I just discovered this. Holy crap man! Great idea and well implimented.

 

What is the status of this?

 

As far as I know it was done as a demo and this is the final result.

[Atari 2600 Ixion Prototype Released]

There are no traces of this EE in the code, but from the existing code, it would have taken just a few bytes to change IXION into NIXON.

 

There is a table with 5 entries pointing to the characters. Add a 2nd table pointing to the characters in a different order and the EE would be done. Plus some code to trigger the EE of course.

Makes sense. It could simply have been removed, or the second version could have been coded from scratch for all we know.

 

This all makes sense from what I know. From what I know, what you have here is a continuation of the original work by Stance Nixon. I do not know what additional, additional work was done by Thomas. As is often the case when you leave a project unfinished, your credit is removed. (As a side note, there is a actually a movement in the game industry to ensure people who started projects, had works derived from their work or a sequel created from their work, are given appropriate credit - http://www.igda.org/credit-standards.)

Excellent!

Just caught up on this thread today. It is a very nice progress so far. Good job!
