GroovyBee Posted February 20, 2010 Share Posted February 20, 2010 i can come up with a real prize, if someone can come up with a real game. Normally the prize is known first. It gives you something to aim for. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
intvdave Posted February 20, 2010 Author Share Posted February 20, 2010 It is a shame that the Intellivision is so difficult to program for. We have been wanting to release new games but responsibilities keep coming first. I do not want to make any release announcements of future games until they are further in production but I will tell you the current ROM builds are looking really good. You will be very pleased if they get released. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also thought Joe and the rest of the guys were great people when I met them years ago at a PhillyClassic! I never made it to Philly but I was at two 3 CGEs (2 in Vegas and 1 in San Francisco). Sometime I think we should stop with what we have done. Stonix starting out the games and Space Patrol ending them; the two best games of the bunch. The problem is I have been wanting for years to see Rick D. completed. Time will tell. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+jsmith73 Posted February 21, 2010 Share Posted February 21, 2010 HUH! You may have a point there... So if hookers are just inspirational, what would we get providing a stripper factory and a beer volcano? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The problem is I have been wanting for years to see Rick D. completed. Time will tell. I went to the PhillyClassic when 4-Tris was released. Joe sold out but let me buy one anyhow and sent it to me later. He was an incredibly nice guy. At some point he introduced me to the other guys there with him (evidently not you though ) and let me see some of the protos, T-carts, and the Moon Patrol game he was working on.
