It would be great if you had  "Santa Clause is Coming to Town " for the music! 

 

Will there be a box & manual and maybe colored carts?😍

There will definitely be a manual. As for the box, I am considering one. Still planning and getting prices. I do not think there will be colored cartridges...but I will look into this.

Maybe red , green, or clear cartridges would be a nice touch, but may be costly.

This is coming along nicely. Keep up the great work!  I like how Santa falls out of the sleigh when hit by a rogue snowflake,  but the reindeer remain unharmed. A nice touch!

I was able to complete level 1 just under 1 minute and 20 seconds.... my time was 1:17!

Just made it by three seconds!  But enough time to unlock level 2!

 

Here is a screen shot with my best time for level 2:

[MEAN SANTA ROM & full source code & manual now available FREE]

In celebration of the 10th anniversary of the release of MEAN SANTA (this homebrew ATARI 2600 game was originally released in December 2009),

programmer John K. Harvey and myself (game designer Tim Duarte) have agreed to decide to release the game ROM, instruction manual, and full source code to the general public. 

 

The ROM file is for use on the Stella emulator, Harmony cartridge, Atari Flashback 9 on an SD card, Atari Flashback portable on an SD card, etc.

 

The ROM file is not to be used to manufacture and sell physical Atari 2600 game cartridges.

If you would like MEAN SANTA in physical cartridge form, please visit my web site: http://www.2600connection.com/features/mean_santa/features_mean_santa.html

It has the ordering information. If you have any questions, please let me know.

 

You can scroll all the way down to the bottom of my web site page and you will discover I have posted the ROM files ( NTSC and PAL), a PDF of the manual, and the assembly source code that John found after all of these years! 

 

I will also attach the files to this message as well.

 

I hope you have a wonderful holiday season and have some fun playing this game!

Enjoy!

Tim

[Introducing Pea Man!]

So cool...  all these levels! I like what you are doing here. Very creative!

 

Suggestion: If you are going to have ICELAND in the game, you may as well have PEA MAN travel to GREENLAND in a future level.

 

There will be a small inconsistency issue though, which you will have to decide upon how to address:

 

In actuality,  Iceland is green and Greenland has ice .....     ( see WorldAtlas.com )

 

So you may have to reverse things a little... 

 

 

Keep up the good work!

[Cartridge Repros - Request for interest]

I don't think I would be interested. I am fine with utilizing existing Odyssey² cartridges just as I have been doing since 2012.

 

Also, the market is very, very small. I do not think there is justification to make the new cartridges. This is just my opinion.

[Windows 2600]

I believe you are referring to my article " Microsoft monopolizes with Windows 2600 cartridges"

 

Looking back, I think this was some of my best review writing... it was a lot of fun reviewing these cartridges.

 

I have placed the article on my web site:

ENJOY!

[2600connection.com (likely to contain malware or other security risks)]

I got pretty much nowhere with the customer service / technical support, other than them trying to sell me a service for $70 for the year on top of what I already pay.

I am still uncertain why the webroot software is stating why the site is suspicious. There is very little content on there. So I have decided to install webroot internet security free trial for 14 days on one of my computers and will try to see what it suggests. One other friend suggested that I remove everything from the web site and reload it all.

[Odyssey 2 AC adapter?]

Luckily, you don't need an original Odyssey² power supply to run your console. Most electronics stores sell adjustable power supplies that you can use. Odyssey²'s power supply requirements are: 12v AC 600mA. However, Odyssey² consoles contain an internal bridge rectifier and 5v regulator, which means that it should be safe to use supplies that don't exactly match these specifications. It should be safe to use a power supply that provides anywhere from 9V to about 14V, AC or DC.

Many Odyssey² players use power supplies from other, more common consoles. A standard 8-bit Nintendo Entertainment System (NES) power supply can be used on most Odyssey² consoles, just not the early models. If your Odyssey² has a round, female power port with a thin metal peg in the middle, it's compatible with an NES supply. If your console's power port is female, but smaller and lacking the metal peg, try an Atari 2600 supply. It should work!
