The business on the site has gone to shit over the last few years. I hear his ebay store is still well maintained but I have not personally bought from him on ebay. I've only bought from the website years and years ago when it was still a top notch place to deal with. It hurts me to admit the website has gone down hill as much as it has but it's the truth.

AtariBrian #290 Posted December 15, 2017 7.95? Ooh that sounds nice. what is his ebay store? I'm definitely going to get couple ballblazer carts. His site is dead . Don't buy from the store . My guess would be if he still had any Ballblazers they would be on ebay . Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cabbage #291 Posted January 9, 2020 This is my first post here, so allow me to bring this threat back from the dead. Sort of. I recently got my 7800, and I am super interested in reproductions and hombrew stuff, so I came across this game online. As I love platformers (and on the 7800 I only know Scrapyard Dog) I was super glad this one was made. OK, so the reason why I write in this threat is that I am an illustrator and I do cover art in my free time. Now I DON'T want to discourage or anger the artist of the games cover, however let's say it could be better and closer to Bentley's OG design. So I drew this one up last week, as I wanted to know if there is interest if perhaps the Store would like to do an updated run of the Game with this newly designed cover. Of course, I am only asking I am not demanding anything, but just throwing it out here. This post has long enough so what do you fellas think ?

PacManPlus #292 Posted January 10, 2020 (edited) Wow, that looks awesome! Great Job! Maybe if I did sort of a 'Part II' to this game with new levels... (Kind of like the Japanese version of Super Mario Bros. II, which were basically newer, harder, levels of Super Mario Bros.) hmmm....... level design contest... Just a thought... BTW, I think it might look better if your background took up the whole area (i.e. no light blue background under the title) Nice Job - what do you guys think about this idea of a 'Part II', using this background as the cover?

Cabbage #293 Posted January 10, 2020 Glad you like it. I would be on board for a Part II. I will also try to show more of the background on the cover. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Well since I've still yet to finish the first boss at the end of the first level and and have only managed to see the second level via the warp... It would be sometime before I'm likely to purchase an even more difficult version of the game! LOL! 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

How about a teddy bear level on pt. 2.? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
+Trebor #296 Posted January 11, 2020 It's definitely challenging, but I never found the game to be too hard; especially with the endless continues provided. Regardless, perhaps a level select feature, or/and a game option (I.E. Beginner/Pro toggle) that halves all enemy speed, if a Part II were to be developed.

ongikong #297 Posted January 11, 2020 Yeah! Bentley Bear II - with some nice new levels & graphics and without the need of a POKEY would be awesome! Go for it! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cabbage #298 Posted January 11, 2020 I think so too. New Levels and slightly updated graphics would be cool. I could also add in some if need be. I dabble in Pixelart from time to time. 4 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

R_Leo_1 #300 Posted January 12, 2020 I second this since a sequel would allow for certain things to be improved over the first game. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
