Blany Posted February 22, 2021 Share Posted February 22, 2021 Doesn't seem to have been any activity on this thread for some time but does anyone know what happened to Beta Phase Games? I would love to get copies of Relief Pitcher and Hotdog. Does anyone know who owns the rights to these games now? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PFG 9000 Posted February 23, 2021 Share Posted February 23, 2021 The last time we heard from them, they were stringing the community along, stating they were doing another run of Hotdog and Relief Pitcher. They reappeared periodically to stoke the interest before disappearing for good. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blany Posted February 23, 2021 Share Posted February 23, 2021 So who has the rights to Hotdog now? I'm sure a reprint of that would sell very well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LordKraken Posted February 23, 2021 Share Posted February 23, 2021 (edited) I can imagine that if someone could pull a (hot)dog out of his hat, that would be @Songbird. Now afaik, the game was playable but far from being complete, and with probably no way to finish it, even with perseverance, it sounds more like a curiosity than a real game right? We'd rather save the money and the effort and go to Mars then Edited February 23, 2021 by LordKraken Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blany Posted February 23, 2021 Share Posted February 23, 2021 Thanks for the replies people. I'd happily go for a trip anywhere at the moment.? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+jgkspsx Posted February 24, 2021 Share Posted February 24, 2021 Is Relief Pitcher playable? Maybe that could be negotiated with Atari as Centipede was? Why is the Hotdog rom a matter of so much mystery and drama, anyhow? (The prank game was actually a good bit of fun itself - I'd love to see that expanded!)

4ever2600 Posted February 24, 2021 Share Posted February 24, 2021 You all, including myself, fell for the most obvious of trolling... I just figured it out.. Duh! It's BETA phase... they just weren't ready for release and are taking several extra years to polish up the game. Have some patience!! We all know AAA titles that were in developmental hell for more than seven years and still came out like crap... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chris_lynx1989 Posted September 27, 2022 Share Posted September 27, 2022 What happened to the releases? Did they happen at all? I never saw the site up again to try and order anything at all. I tried the site and Go Daddy says it is available to take possession of. Did these happen again for the Christmas 2021 season as was hoped for?!?! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+jgkspsx Posted October 8, 2022 Share Posted October 8, 2022 They vanished like Brigadoon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chris_lynx1989 Posted October 10, 2022 Share Posted October 10, 2022 (edited) Sad, they seem to have gone bankrupt, I guess. Their site and the Beta Phase Games name is up for grabs with GO DADDY.COM I saw the other day... Many people still wanted copies of Hot Dog, Relief Pitcher, Lynx Poker, Road Riot 4WD, Alien vs Predator, Eye of the Beholder and a few other games they were still promising up till Christmas 2021, I believe. I have never heard about them coming out last year as promised. Did anyone here receive anything at all last year? Just curious.
