newcoleco Posted July 27, 2009 Share Posted July 27, 2009 This is your first ColecoVision homebrew? That's way more complex than my own first homebrew games. Would you accept a trade? I would like to purchase one cartridge, but I can't... for the moment... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
youki Posted July 27, 2009 Author Share Posted July 27, 2009 This is your first ColecoVision homebrew? That's way more complex than my own first homebrew games. Would you accept a trade? I would like to purchase one cartridge, but I can't... for the moment... Yes, it is even more than my first colecovision homebrew . It is my very first program on Colecovision. I wanted test your development kit , so i thought instead of doing a "Hello word" , i'm going to do my "Ghost'n goblins". But however that's not my first game . I started programming in 1982 and never stopped since. (programming is my job (not game unfortunnaly)). I'm pretty happy with the result. It is not perfect, there are some thing i would do differently if i could restart. But i think (modesty off) it is really good game for the coleco. It was very challenging to push all what i wanted in 32k. And in fact i could not ,i do lot of cut , compromise... and the ROM does exactly 32768 bytes! I used all bytes i could. The few people that have played it , liked it very much. Now i know very well the coleco. And i'm looking foward to produce a new game! And it was thanks to your kit and documentation Daniel. In fact i was looking for a development kit for A800 , my first idea was to port GNG from C64 to A800 . And i saw a link somewhere in google to your kit. I tested it just to see and the result is Ghost'n Zombies! concerning the trade, i contact you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
