Yes Further down it says "Im simply covering my ass for when I finally(if I finally) finish the game and sell it on cart for Jag" so I'd say it's not finished. Maybe you could ask him next time you're in the proppa place for such questions

What's your plans for this, Doc? Did Surrounded ever get finished?

Maybe you should strap one on & ask a VCS

Plenty of time to get cleaned up

Pfffft where's the fun in that?! & excess baggage charges for all my jagcrap would break the bank - gaztee would need to reserve half the luggage compartments The overnight ferry from Hull was super cheap when shw took me & Cal to Outline a little while back - and that had a cinema, bars and as many little ice creams as you can eat

Where's Superfly DX?

Cheers, Jonathan. Your mkII pad sounds good - I'm forever switching pads while testing stuff, it would have been perfect for AC2011 this year when switching from game to game when demonstrating While working on Rebooteroids, CJ started a little side project using parts of that and an early incarnation of something else he's been busy with. Currently (after only a few hours additional work really), we have the beginnings of another rotary game that is plenty different enough to 'roids to be worth a release/all the effort of asset creation/etc. and is sure to be ready before Rebooteroids as it's not nearly as involved. It'll be BJL/ULS compatible and will use exactly the same rotary code & sensitivity adjustments as 'roids, so people will be able to give that a go & see how it works for them (it'd be interesting to hear how it works with old driving controller hacks and some more fruity rotaries people have made themselves). Another point of note is that there's probably only going to be one fire/action button in this game, so it should work fine with dannygalaga's t2k commander, too. Hopefully these games plus a few more we are considering (and at least one non-game little release) will help stimulate more demand for rotary controllers & keep yourself, Tyrant, Chaos Reins & dannygalaga busy making more pads

Sleeping on the floor is free* - the hardcore Atari way *except e-jagfest is a 1-dayer and there's no floor to sleep on, oops!

Kinda disturbing I thought, but it spawned a whole new genre of artwork.

I only ordered my XM last week, I'd been putting it off until they started shipping. Not because I thought there would be problems, more that I'm just lazy and don't get around to doing stuff like that until I really have to. After recent goings-on here I thought better of my wait-and-see laziness and put my money up to show my support. I'm not really what you'd call a fan of the 7800 but it's had its moments for me occasionally. The XM makes it a much more attractive prospect and has me interested in the system again, so I'm looking forward to it and to other 7800 hardware and software I've heard snippets about... there's a Falcon060-shaped pile of dust on my desk that might just have to permanently make way for something taller, darker & more handsome Forum drama crap below, feel free to ignore:

You don't half talk some shit, Underball. You pollute this forum like a cancer. lol

d'oh! They were even in the archives I tested, double d-oh! OK, I admit, I'm not one for boxes on shelves, they're sitting in a case logic file with black marker pen 'labels' and my jagCD units all hate me anyway Edit: oh, and I better donate if I plan to keep them

That really smacks of someone discovering some stuff and wondering what the hell he found - got to be rare, no idea what it's worth, go fishing for offers. Saw the first page of his other auctions... all seems to have a just-dug-this-up-in-the-back-yard quality to it.

Ah, released this year, yes, but created back when the Jaguar was on store shelves.

Ah thanks, rebooteroids.com was still pointing to the old site, cheers!

Burning CDi files seems to be a big hassle for Mac owners. There was a lot of talk at NexGam regarding our games & ULS using the format, seems hardly any of them own Windows machines! I have seen guides on Dreamcast sites that make mention of conversion tools but, not being a Mac owner, I have no first-hand experience of them. You could have a google & see what you come up with... e.g. dcemulation have a tool that might be what you are after. Failing that, I'm sure some friendly Windows user nearby will let you have use of their machine for 15 minutes. BTW, not get to do any testing of your friend's game, I thought that was a CD title?

Lars has made hard copies of most of these titles in the past, so I wonder if he could make the files available to those who donate? Not my place to say that really though, but would be another good incentive to those who support his efforts. Maybe alter them slightly to differentiate them form the originals so as not to upset existing collectors who own them.

Decent compared to other versions of RR, true. The RR gameplay area is less than half the 320x240(?) screen and seems to have little going on other than landscape for a lot of the time, so it's not easy to compare to other Jaguar games having to do a lot more grunt work.

The Jaguar can do many things in many ways. A game concept can be conceived and implemented however a coder/team sees fit. Trying to reverse engineer a game into some Complete-and-Utter-Nonpariel-Total-System-Overload™ routines is probably not the best way to go about bringing a game into this world, unless you're the kind of pervert who gets off on headaches and hair-pulling technical exercises. Consider a game idea. Plan how it will work in a way you are comfortable with. Merrily make the Jaguar your bidding in the best way you see fit. Rake in the mon£¥$ (optional) vs Max out the system in some very clever ways. Sit & think how you might be able to force what you have done into being a game of some sort - anything will do! Swear a lot as you find you have no breathing space. Give up, start on another project (optional) There are things the Jaguar does well & helps you with massively. There are other things it's less spectacular at. The general consensus regarding game design philosophy suggests you limit your against the grain activities - work to the strengths of your target system. PS I don't think there are any games made this year offered up for sale... unless you know different?

Lars recently released quite a few Jaguar & PC software titles as donationware - yay! Take a trip to his blog for more info and don't forget to help him bring about his work-in-progress titles by donating and to say thanks for all his great efforts! Use the download link on his blog to see the full list of titles, plenty to keep your Jaguar busy for quite some time!
