GroovyBee Posted May 25, 2013 Share Posted May 25, 2013 I've finalised the first 8 Inty levels. Here are a couple of comparisons between the Atari 8 bit version (on the left) and the Inty (on the right) :- <---- Click to enlarge <---- Click to enlarge They look close enough to me, given the limitations of the Inty. The player, Neighbour and Dog were removed by hand from those screen shots. There are still another 8 levels to go into the game. When I've finalised the Dog AI and mower turbo mode I'll go back to filling out the levels. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GroovyBee Posted May 25, 2013 Share Posted May 25, 2013 Any incoming progress Groovy? :-) Is it done yet? I need to give you more monies! Making good progress. Not much more left to do. However, the final spit and polish always takes more time than you think it will. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GroovyBee Posted May 25, 2013 Share Posted May 25, 2013 You should have asked for an olde git mode! Groovy is great at implementing them "Old git mode" on Duckie Egg was quite easy to implement. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vprette Posted May 27, 2013 Author Share Posted May 27, 2013 thanks for compliments in advance this game is not only the first official license on intv since decades, but possibly the best product so far from elektronite. we are working to improve to the maximum all quality elements, and we ahve now enough product to think about a paper catalog... but we need volunteer to help... I'm not good on desktop publishing... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HARMIK Posted May 27, 2013 Share Posted May 27, 2013 An old catalogue like back in the day that sounds awesome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Special Teams Posted May 27, 2013 Share Posted May 27, 2013 Nice! A catalogue included with the games would be sweet. Well done on the Hover Bovver hype by the way. I was not the least bit interested at first, but now I'm all in! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maximebeauvais Posted May 27, 2013 Share Posted May 27, 2013 I want one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pimpmaul69 Posted May 27, 2013 Share Posted May 27, 2013 Graphically this game looks superior on the inty to me. Not sure all the limitations on the intellivision though. Hopefully everyone that plays this will become a hover bovver lover. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vprette Posted May 28, 2013 Author Share Posted May 28, 2013 the best of this game is the playability Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WispFollower Posted May 28, 2013 Share Posted May 28, 2013 Is this -> http://www.retrogami...om/schedule.php what you are speaking of? I just got myself all hyped up to go to this since I have never been to anything like it, but I guess I didn't realize flights from Indiana to Oregon were over $400. I guess I'll save my money for Vegas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fushek Posted June 4, 2013 Share Posted June 4, 2013 Wow, I wish we had Groovy on the Aquarius We've already discussed cloning him ... if we can do so successfully, I can't see why we wouldn't be able to make another Groovy for you. Groovies for all! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GroovyBee Posted June 4, 2013 Share Posted June 4, 2013 Wow, I wish we had Groovy on the Aquarius Its been quite a few years since I did any coding in Z80 assembler. My only experience with Aquarius is some technical help on jaybird3rd's Aquarius cart. Aquarius machines go for silly prices in the UK so I doubt I'll be getting one any time soon.

If you'd actually like to start dev'ing I could start looking for an Aquarius to donate to you. NTSC though. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for the kind offer but unfortunately I'll have to decline. I have quite a few machines ahead of the Aquarius in my "must do something for" list. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aquaman Posted June 4, 2013 Share Posted June 4, 2013 Aquarius machines go for silly prices in the UK so I doubt I'll be getting one any time soon. I know that the PAL versions in Europe are going for insane prices compared to the NTSC versions. Furthermore you would really need the expansion module, and these are almost only on sale from the US.We keep our hopes up you will get one soon and make us Aquarius users as happy as the Inty community Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
