I like arcade games. I like the 1980s. I like movies. So one day in class, I thought, "What if I made a movie about 1980s arcade games?" And thus, High Score was born. It is set in 1982 and follows a preteen girl, Tiffany Willis, and her best friend, Dave Bryant, who live in uptown NYC and are both huge video game fanatics. Tiffany gets tons of scores on games both at the arcade at the mall and the local arcade down the street. She's a legend at the latter, always gathering up a crowd of people watching her play. She gets her Atari 2600, ColecoVision, and Intellivision fix at the game store nearby. When the arcade is holding a tournament at the end of the year, Tiffany is determined to win. So she and Dave prove they're the best by setting the high score on every arcade across their country. I am setting up my basement to be the Meril Valley Mall's arcade, and Flash Forward Arcade will be shot at, of course, Funspot. I'm writing the script and playing Tiffany! Follow the progress at PlotBot! http://www.plotbot.com/screenplays/high_score/ Questions about the film can be put in the replies! See you soon!

The poster for the upcoming Gameplay: The Story of the Videogame Revolution documentary film is now ready, and shown below. When the Website is ready, I'll post again, and also once distribution details for this year are finalized. The film, which is based on the Vintage Games series of books by me and Matt Barton (we're also writers and producers on the film), covers the history of videogames from the perspective of those who made it happen. Those interviewed include Nolan Bushnell, John Romero, Todd Howard, Daniel Murray, Darion Lowenstein, Eric Lindstrom, David Crane, and many, many more. The narrator is Cain Devore. The film also has a Facebook and Google+ presence, although Armchair Arcade is still a great place to find out new details (in fact, here's the same thing as a blog post there so you can see the PDF). -
Hello all! My production company just started a Kickstarter campaign for the Atari 2600-themed film CHRISTMAS BYTES. Set in 1982, the film -- produced by Dule Hill (Psych, West Wing), featuring Michael Shannon (Boardwalk Empire, Man of Steel) with a soundtrack by The Residents -- is about two fourteen year-old boys, one wants an Atari 2600 for Christmas. The other? A girlfriend. Here's a link to the campaign: http://www.kickstart...christmas-bytes We're offering all sorts of Atari-themed perks, including signed Atari 2600 box art by Cliff Spohn, ATARI FORCE comics signed by Gerry Conway, an 8 bit 'ADVENTURE'-style game made by the amazing folks at 8 Bit Rocket, a 'Swordquest: Waterworld' cartridge and a ton of other great items. Sound interesting? Then head on over to the above link... Questions? Send me a note! -Brett Neveu writer/producer CHRISTMAS BYTES with Wild Mouse Films -
I was ahowing the kids some Wing Commander cartoons earlier this week, and was thinking about how cool it would be to have something similar to a favorite Intellivision game. Even limiting to the original 125, there seems like more than 1 game could make a 10-episode toon series (with likeable characters and drama and etc) . Excluding stuff that already has some kind of media tie in, it would be cool to see a show about Space Spartans Bomb Squad Christmas Carol Dreadnaught Factor Lock n Chase Dragonfire Fathom If there are any animators out there, I'm open to talk about development and script writing.

I'm developing a scavenger hunt-like game based on the 1979 film, Alien. I realize there's already an Alien game on the Atari 2600, but I wanna make a game that's not a Pac-man clone. Anyway, I'm not very good at creating nice-looking sprites. Does anyone have any advice or tips on making sprites?

In the movie the Dahmster is in a grocery store playing Pitfall on a woodgrain 2600, presumably during the late 80s or early 90s. Odd . . .
