I would definitely try this out if there was a way to locally run the binary on the PlusCart without transmitting it over the Internet. I don't want to break any agreements I'm bound to so I'll unfortunately have to leave this to someone else when they get their official purchased binary in a few days. There is a SuperBanking test program that batari uploaded that displays colours on the screen which might be a good test in the mean time! - James

Thanks Thomas! The DragonFly really makes the 7800 come alive with so much sound possibilities and huge compatibility with homebrew! I was also having a lot of trouble reading the poll when it was finished. Grey on black is a very poor choice of default colours, I'll see if there's any way to change them in the settings. - James

You're so welcome @Muddyfunster! It's a gorgeous game, now with equally amazing music to match! I can't wait to play levels 3-5 when they're done and fight all the bosses!! - James

No problem, thank you for the update! I'll let you know if I run into any issues. - James

Good idea! I should play Aardvark more, amazing game! - James

Thank you so much @batari, the update worked perfectly! (sorry, had to censor part of the video due to sensitive information) - James (SET VIDEO TO 1080P60 FOR FULL QUALITY)

WOW. Great use of background and playfield colours, so vibrant! The scenery in this game is astounding, can't wait to play it on the show! - James

Will do. It's hard not to show off all the great work being done, but I'll avoid discussing on the show for now. 👍 - James

Hahah, I missed the impressive updates to this thread before the show yesterday but l definitely talk about it on Friday! 🙂 I'm blown away with both @darryl1970's POC and the screenshots from @OldStyle WIP. Mario Bros. is an extremely fun game that I love to play and I'm looking forward to what either of them come up with separately or together! - James

What? Never heard of it! Good catch, I've updated the listing. - James

Good question. We've never had to run into that situation with a title for the Atari Homebrew Awards yet. I don't immediately have a gut feeling where that would fall since it would have its feet in both camps. - James

I'll make sure to check if they are excluding Audacity releases from nomination eligibility in the 4th Annual Homebrew Awards. - James

I believe that if you die or leave (but some you can't leave) a sideshow before it's complete, you can try it again. Once you get your star rewards, the hatch closes and you don't get another attempt unless you restart the game. - James
