Go is a great game I have played it before, you capture your opponents pieces by surrounding them like Othello. But Go is the original game much older. Wade

What does anyone think so far? The first time I played Tom Boy I was impressed because it was so much like a Tarzan game but for some reason they had him with a crue cut in his jungle shorts grab. Well I found out for hair I need to make Tarzan the same color as his hair. I thought well even if Tarzan was supposed to be the "great white ape man" living in the jungle no matter how white you are you would look brown from the sun so that was an easy choice to make him brown then his hair would be brown too. The shorts I made gray, maybe from some animal that has gray fur or skin? Ahhhhh Rhino shorts, he made shorts from Rhinoceros skin that fits perfectly with the jungle! I didn't quite like how he looked swinging on the vine so I decided to change that too. Wade

You can still do that, I am using a different game. I won't have alot of time to work on it for a couple weeks but the "Robby" sprite look cool (if I do say so myself) and YES you are Robby in this game HINT: It's not Texas Chainsaw or Halloween COOOOOOOOOOOLLLLLLLLL YES that sounds great Forbidden Planet!!!!! Wade

I am trying to think on Ideas for this game, I wish I could have the vine swing sound more like in PitFall. As for the enemies of the jungle maybe I'll change the dog into something else, I like the Octopus and the Swans the stepping stones I would like to change to look more like crocodiles like in PitFall. If I can find the colors I will change the swans to white, they never looked quite right brown? The cat is cool. Maybe also change the tree top color to some kind of green. So these are my thoughts on what I may change yet. Any thoughts of yours on what could be changed? Wade

I think Fatal Run could be hacked into Fonzie, it would be so cool because he could shoot the other motorcycles off the road. and there are lots of explosions, it should make an exciting Fonzie game! The other games are Super Farreri and Motocross Racer? I believe Fonzie was in a gang The Lords if I remember correctly, they helped him every now and then if he was in a gang fight, which for happy days was rare until they wanted ratings! LOL Wade

This is what I have so far, you can see Tarzan's long hair, unfortunately right now it is flesh color so it looks more like elephant man backwards with his trunk sticking out the back of his face! Wade Looking better now but he looks like he is wearing a wrestling mask now. Now this is Tarzan! Wade Changed name and changed Tarzan on the vine swinging. Wade Tarzan_hack_8_8_6_wc.BIN

I'm bord so I thought maybe I'll try hacking Tom Boy into some kind of Tarzan game, it is pretty close now so I think I could do it but I'll see. Wade

I have a hack someone did called Hang-On (based on the arcade game Hang-On) it is Enduro Racer hacked for Motorcycles. You could Imagin it is Fonz on his cycle? Wade HangOn_Hack.bin

Yes Pengo is called Brick Kick on the Atari, it is pretty good but could still look better, I may one day hack it into Pengo, make the sprits look a little more like real Pengo. Wade Huh? Pengo is called Pengo on the 2600 and the sprites do look something like real Pengo. http://www.atariage.com/software_page.html...wareLabelID=351 OHHHHHHH WOW thanks so much that beats the living stuffing out of Brick Kick!!!!!!! Also way better than trying to hack Brick Kick into Pengo!! I have over a 1000 games how did I miss this! LOL Thanks Man! Wade

Wow I can picture Mappy on the 2600 looking almost as good as Mappy on MSX! That looks like it could be really good! Wade

First off, hacks are homebrews are not the same thing. Hacks are rewrites of existing games. Homebrews are new games made from scratch. This search can be used to find homebrews. Just set region to all, rarity to H, leave everything else as is, and then click "Begin Search". There are download links for the homebrews at AtariAge. I highly recommend trying each and every one of them, especially Marble Craze, Qb, Oystron, Skeleton+, Gunfight, Seawolf, Crazy Balloon, Conquest of Mars, Fall Down, Thrust+ Platinum, and Star Fire. Hacks are avaliable at the AtariAge site too. They can be found here and at the pages for the games at www.atariage.com that they are hacks of. These are edits of existing games and IMO should not be referred to as "homebrews". Please try to give other homebrews and hacks a chance and respect ideas instead of claiming that yours are better. Also, throwing out random stuff like Pitfall 3, Three Stooges, etc without any indication of how you want the ideas to be used will not make more hacks or homebrews. You can't just force random ideas on people and expect them to be done. WOW Brian thanks for the info on the searches, I found a lot of Homebrews I don't have! Wade

A clone? The original arcade game was named Mr. Do's Wild Ride. My Mistake, you are correct. Wade

Satan's Hollow is impossible, this is why I know, when it came out for the C64 it was said that it absolutely pushed the C64 to it's limits. Really it was thought impossible on the C64 until someone made it! By the way I missed that side scroller pic of Zaxxon AWESOME now that is real Zaxxon the way Coleco should have done it! :D:D

Yes Pengo is called Brick Kick on the Atari, it is pretty good but could still look better, I may one day hack it into Pengo, make the sprits look a little more like real Pengo. Wade

I decided to upload the Donkey Kong 2K3 picture I downloaded from some place, this displays on the VCS. So at least in a picture it seems it could be done? Wade PS I had to change it from an A26 file in bin file to upload it, I think it should still be ok. Donkey_Kong_2K3_Pic__PD_.bin

Movie history? Robby Robot from the movie I can't remember the movie now they went to Mars. Was it Angry Red Planet? No I don't think so? Any way for years Robby was in movies and on TV I think even in a Twilights Zone episode. There was even a Lost in Space episode where Robby fought the lost in space robot, can't remember that robot's name though? I think Robby was an inspiration for later the Cylons in Battle Star Galactica. If you look at the sort of cone or dome shaped head and the body was almost like a human body , I wonder is Robby was a costume. LOL He had to be or he would have been the most advanced robot to today even. lol Wade

I would love to see someday if posible Berzerk hacked into Frenzy. Wade

I think if the background clouds and mountains were not there it could be done, the music could be similar to the Pitfall II special chip music? If we think how good pitfall II is Super Mario seems it could be done, doesn't it? Wade

Mario's Wild Ride that was cool I remember some roller coster you had to jump over the cars and get cherries. Wade

Zaxxon would be excellent but I think impossible, it would need to be a side scroller or something like River Raid 2 I think the 2600 can not do diagonal scrolling, the reason why the original Zaxxon doesn't. Wade

Is this a port of the Commodore 64 Soccer, I swear from these pictures I remember Soccer on the Commodore 64 that looked just like or almost like this? Wade

I know everyone is talking of making Pitfall 3 but have you seen the hack Bottomless Pitfall? That I think is pretty darn close to what could be called Pitfall 3. Wade
