    I made another 7800 homebrew, it's based on Kaboom. Why? It just sounded like fun. http://atariage.com/forums/topic/238734-boom/?do=findComment&comment=3245177

      Looks cool, i'll throw it on my Atarimax 7800 SD cart and give it a try.

    Dancing like there's nobody watching, and singing like there's nobody listening.

      No, the movie is an autobiographical retelling of the events which led to July 4th being known as Independence Day. It's further proof that US history is more interesting than Canadian history.

      I want a 7800! But they're so goddamn expensive. They wanted $70 or something for one at the PRGE that looked like it had been run over by a truck.

       

    3. Atarius Maximus

      Atarius Maximus

      Wow, I had no idea they were going for so much. I just checked ebay and most are between $80-$120. I have my original one and one I paid $20 or so for on ebay over 10 years ago.

      I got mine complete at a goodwill for $32.

    If you've ever used batari Basic, you must try 7800basic. It's awesome. http://atariage.com/forums/topic/222638-7800basic-beta-the-release-thread/

      Gemintronic

      No flicker? Way more than 2 sprites? Same great suppliers of cart production? How much does all this cost?!?

    2. Atarius Maximus

      Atarius Maximus

      It's $100 per game. I'll provide my PayPal payment email to anyone who decides to start developing a game. :)

  14. Atarius Maximus

    Just got started on my first game using 7800basic. http://atariage.com/forums/topic/226181-touchdown-challenge-my-first-7800basic-game/

    I don't have an AA blog, but if you're a bored IT guy that works in SAN administration, you might like mine at http://emcsan.wordpress.com.

  16. Atarius Maximus

    Are you ready for some football? :) I made a quick, simple clone of the iOS game Kickoff. http://atariage.com/forums/topic/225974-touchdown-challenge/

    Working hard at hardly working.

  18. Atarius Maximus

    Sometimes I wish I had a time machine to go back to the 80's. For me it was an idealistic time of no kids, no worries, no commitments, and endless time to do whatever I wanted. There was also something about seeing "READY" on the screen that just begged me to be creative and spend sleepless nights writing "just one more line" of a program. The start menu just isn't the same.

      "Sometimes"? For me it's every day. The '80s were such a magical time. The future was limitless and computers were magical. Sigh.

    3. Grig

      Grig

      Yes, magical. The 80s mixed the old with the new. The old was still useful and the new was accepted. Best decade ever.

      Things WERE more colorful then. Compare advertisements. The fonts in text were also more pleasant too.

  19. Atarius Maximus

    Started on a new idea, Spy Dive, the demo's in the bB forum. Making a scrolling background that looks good is kicking my butt. Rethinking this concept.

      You can have a clickable link in your status update as long as there is a blank space after your sentence. Links do not work in replies, though.

      That would have been a bit more useful than saying "it's in the bB forum", huh? I'll do that next time, thanks for the tip. :)

  20. Atarius Maximus

    I'm still trying to think of a good bB game idea, so in the interim I made a River Raid hack today called 'River Raid Turbo', although I probably should have called it 'River Raid Sadistic'. :) It's fast. Really fast. Download it in the 2600 hacks forum.

      Not sure about doing rat race, but I'll definitely take a look at your demo.

    3. Atarius Maximus

      Atarius Maximus

      I think I've got an idea. Now I just need a few weeks to flesh it out and write some code. Stay tuned, it could be a few weeks. :)

      Not happy with SpyDive, starting over. I'm going to spend a few evenings playing Mame to try and get some inspiration.

  21. Atarius Maximus

    It's time to start a new project. My AtariVox is calling my name.

  22. Atarius Maximus

    Working on my next Project, Jungle Adventure.

      Gemintronic

      Any relation to your previous experiments that look like Pitfall 2?

    2. Atarius Maximus

      Atarius Maximus

      Yep, I'm trying to turn the demo I created earlier this year into a real game. :)

  23. Atarius Maximus

    Finally starting my first DPC+ project, inspired by Pitfall. :)

    1. Gemintronic

      Gemintronic

      You take the Pitfall II clones. Leave Super Pitfall to me and we'll have our territory properly marked!

    2. Atarius Maximus

      Atarius Maximus

      Deal. :)

  24. Atarius Maximus

    Gate Racer with Atarivox/Savekey support is finished. :)

  25. Atarius Maximus

    Starting to learn DPC+. Time to start on a new game!

    1. Gemintronic

      Gemintronic

      Maybe if we BOTH corner SeaGtGruff he'll hafta code in DPC+ support into his horizontal scrolling library!

    2. Atarius Maximus

      Atarius Maximus

      Any ideas on how to corner him? We need you Mike! :)
