NIAD Posted March 25, 2014 Share Posted March 25, 2014 You're right, I had a brain fart and was thinking of Temple of Apshai. Telengard was not released for the Adam, though I imagine it would have been better than Temple of Apshai turned out. I'm actually surprised no one ever attempted to port the Apple II version since the BASICs are fairly similar. I was thinking Temple of Apshai was what you meant. There is a real nice graphics/role playing game on the style of Telengard called "The Black Dungeon of Midor" and you have it if you downloaded the ADAM software collection that I have made available. It's a little slow with the screen refreshes, but it looks to be something all the D&D style game enthusiast would like... I never had the patience for these type of games. I'm surprised more ADAM programmers (including myself) didn't attempt to port Apple Basic commercial quality games as well, it really would have been some easy money to be made. The only port that was actually done was of the submarine game called Gato that Strategic Software ported/recreated from scratch and released for the ADAM as Sub Raiders.

Troy_Whelan Posted March 29, 2014 Share Posted March 29, 2014 Not actually a computer game, but I would love to see a card battle game based on the card battle game in PS1 Final Fantasy VII that they played in the pubs. It could even have gameplay where you played in the combat adventure portion to acquire the various cards to play with. I played that card game a lot and really enjoyed accumulating all of the cards throughout the game. Lots of flexibility in the creation and implementation of this concept.

NIAD Posted March 29, 2014 Share Posted March 29, 2014 Games I'd love to see reissued: Boulderdash TeleGames UK actually did this last year. It came in CIB form although the box wasn't very impressive, the manual was a copy of the 1986/1987 release and used PkK's mini-cart shell. BTW, it was extremely overpriced and I'm sure TeleGames UK still has some avalable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Troy_Whelan Posted March 31, 2014 Share Posted March 31, 2014 How about Blastar, the video game written by Elon Musk 30 years ago when he was 12 that eventually evolved into the Arcade game Blaster! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RelliK111 Posted April 7, 2014 Share Posted April 7, 2014 The game I want more than any other game is Blue Max!!!! It's one of my all time favorite games on the Atari 800! Its like River Raid but so much deeper!! You can drop bombs shoot your guns, you haft to land to get repairs. If you get shot you can have your guns, bombs, landing gear or fuel damaged. There's lost city's, bridges to blow up, ships, planes, anti air craft guns, trucks and much more to shoot! I really love this game! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iD7qVYgEq10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
youki Posted April 8, 2014 Share Posted April 8, 2014 - nebulus - murder on the mississipi - willow pattern adventure - bruce lee I had already start to think how to do a version of Murder on the Mississipi for the CV.

Pixelboy Posted August 7, 2014 Author Share Posted August 7, 2014 Dancing Demon (TRS-80) Android Nim (TRS-80) Mr Driller is for sure a great one. 2048 (puzzle game for PC -- I've been thinking of trying to do a nice version of this one) Castle Wolfenstein (Apple II) California Games (C64) Death and Taxes (Apple II) Time Bomb (TRS-80) Castle Wolfenstein is a nice candidate for a ColecoVision game, but if it was up to me, I would do it like Zombie Near, with fluid animated sprites instead of choppy tile-based graphics. Hey nanochess, any chance you can convert your source code of Zombie Near to do Castle Wolfenstein? (Probably not, but a guy has to try!)

Sega Ages Posted August 7, 2014 Share Posted August 7, 2014 (edited) With "Elite Dangerous" out soon for PC... Has anyone suggested a possible MSX-to-Colecovision port of the original open-world space combat/exploration/trading classic "Elite" (perhaps using Super Game Module): If someone could modify the MSX controls to use the CV numeric pad, and distribute the port with a custom homebrew overlay, "Elite" could be a crown jewel in the Colecovision library. Imagine spending all night exploring the galaxy on your Colecovision... Edited August 7, 2014 by Sega Ages 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrazyBoss Posted August 7, 2014 Share Posted August 7, 2014 I already took a look at "Elite" I dont think its an easy port for Colecovision, maybe with SGM, The MSX Diskette version runs in MSXDOS may have org $0100, so can for sure not be put in 32k rom, need something with bankswitching or so. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
