ccwrc Posted January 9, 2021 Share Posted January 9, 2021 A few more pics. Very limited cartridge: Great Green Adventure. Details on another forum: http://www.atari.org.pl/forum/viewtopic.php?id=16286 There were two versions of the PCB's. Light and dark green. Due to the colors of the sticker, I chose the darker version (left side). Perhaps an unnecessary detail. Colored edge after cut. Final effect. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Albert Posted April 18, 2021 Author Share Posted April 18, 2021 Oh yes, I forgot to post this image here. This is the first batch of Scramble cartridges I've produced using Siko's shells! Working on getting the Adventure II XE carts done, will post a photo here of those as well once I get them labeled. ..Al 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are there two different versions? It's the version from Playsoft, with a version for the 5200 as well. We've been selling the 5200 version for a while, and the Atari 8-bit version is new in the store. Both versions are basically the same, but there are some differences (aside from just the obvious controller changes). Here's a video: I'd link to the store, but I have taken the store down temporarily so I can focus on getting all these new games built and shipped. ..Al 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wondered if this is "just" a cartridge version of that game or improved on that game. Now waiting for Gravitic Mines and a Jag GameDrive and I'm ready for a large order, hopefully before mandatory customs handling. Recently all US packages failed to attract the attention of customs for reasons mysterious to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are some minor changes from the 5200 version, such as support for two-button controllers utilizing the Joy 2B+ protocol. 6 hours ago, slx said: Now waiting for Gravitic Mines and a Jag GameDrive and I'm ready for a large order, hopefully before mandatory customs handling.

Is AR-Dungeon (and AR-City?) on cart. now fully playable? I thought that the cart version was a wip, which still has bugs and crashes here or there. But if it is fully playable, I would like to order a copy from you... (Or maybe Albert could make a deal with PP, Ken and Dan and sell City+Dungeon carts. officially in the AA shop?)

Ken digs it, have not heard back from Dan yet. Of course!!! It would be a dream come true. I love this game and I always wanted to convert into this format. I always thought that this is how to be the way to play it. I also considered this conversion as a homage to Ken and Dan. Let’s talk about it by private message. I do really want to have permission and/or blessing from them, but I had no idea how to contact them and I never even imagined you can do that. I do really appreciate Ken’s permission. Hope Dan agrees as well. Please take into account that it needs at least 64k ram to work, because it uses the ram under the OS to work. Thank you so much for giving me this opportunity!

You can also save it into a diskette (or atr image with your preferred way, except maybe the sdrive max, because it doesn’t support the “status” instruction properly.) and even transfer a City character from disk. I also wrote an utility to transfer your chracters from disk to cartridge and vice versa. Last, but certainly not least, I’m giving support by publishing updates by atr images, so the atr flashes the patches into the cartridge. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
