mr-atari #1 Posted November 6, 2015 (edited) Coming soon for all Atari homecomputers (16k minimum). 1-4 player paddle game, 4 player fun! This weekend there will be final beta testing on the E-jagfest in Germany. After that some fine-tuning and release before x-mas! "have you played atari today?" Cheers, Sijmen. http://www.mr-atari.com/lost_in_space/ Edited November 6, 2015 by mr-atari 18 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Defender II #2 Posted November 6, 2015 Will you be doing cartridges or just digital? If cartridges, I'd like two. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mr-atari #3 Posted November 6, 2015 Download only, and it's for free. The beta's are already on my homepage. I use MyIDE to load the XEX-files, but the k-loader and SIO also works great. Grtz, Sijmen. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Grevle #5 Posted November 6, 2015 (edited) Great, The second "port" from odyssey 2 ? since my "Speedway One" was sort of a port from odyssey 2. Would like to see a Atari port of the Gunfighter game from Odyssey2/Videopac. I was considering doing one myself but my knowlegde of matematics is probably not good enough since the bullet in the game bounces around in a pong like fashion when hitting the trees..Also the walking gunfighters (cowboys) have a smooth animation that requires lots of frames, but still it can be done but requires a lot of work i guess.

mr-atari #6 Posted November 6, 2015 Oh yeah, gunfight would be cool. Who knows. Philips have some really cool games, never ported to other systems. Satellite-attack is one of my favorites.... Childhood nostalgia coming up right now. Here is some artwork for the current work-in-progress..... 3 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

pedgarcia #20 Posted December 24, 2015 Hey Mr.Atari, I am writing about your game for a post to be released after you release the game and I was happily surprised how good it is, and also how the game play is similar to my C64 game Mission:Moon (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2ZXWdixf0X4) . My game is coded in BASIC and it is not as sophisticated as yours, but it is interesting to see the same idea better implemented. Nice job!
