pinpin06 Posted July 15, 2018 Share Posted July 15, 2018 Hi everyone, I was a bit out of the scene the last months due to a huge amount of work and business travels, I'm dtill wondering if games can be reserved/order to betaphasegames? I'm missing relief pitcher and AVP. Thanks for any info Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4ever2600 Posted July 16, 2018 Share Posted July 16, 2018 Well pin pin, let me bring you up to speed... it's been one year and three months and nothing has been released. No movement, just one single post, after one year and two months ago, that basically stated that the project is still on going. Check back in 2020 and I'm sure you can still be on the list. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4ever2600 Posted July 16, 2018 Share Posted July 16, 2018 PS pin pin, you can purchase AVP from eBay from a very reliable dealer. You don't have to wait. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rick Dangerous Posted July 16, 2018 Share Posted July 16, 2018 Well...looks like I haven't missed anything. Hopefully these will see a re-release one of these years..Just hope I don't miss it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4ever2600 Posted July 19, 2018 Share Posted July 19, 2018 True, but since that one will probably never see the light of day (and even if it does we may only be provided with 10 copies) the odds of him actually getting one is slim to none. If he just wants to try the game as is, he can purchase one now from ebay and not turn into a skeleton waiting. the avp is a different one with some patches which allow to play as alien.

LordKraken Posted September 3, 2018 Share Posted September 3, 2018 (edited) Do we know who own the rights for those 2 games? Maybe der Luchs or Super Fighter team would be interested to do a new edition? I guess both games would sell at least a couple of hundred of copies each...

sage Posted September 3, 2018 Share Posted September 3, 2018 thats the point. everybody can sell some copies incognito on ebugs. but if you want to go offical... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turbo Laser Lynx Posted September 3, 2018 Share Posted September 3, 2018 Maybe someone would be able to get the rights if this isn't happening? There's some 'permission to distribute' names in the original 2011 thread: http://atariage.com/forums/topic/174957-hotdog-available-now-new-platformer-mascot-game/?hl=+hotdog It does mention exclusive rights though!

Juan José Torres Posted September 4, 2018 Share Posted September 4, 2018 Do we know who own the rights for those 2 games? Maybe der Luchs or Super Fighter team would be interested to do a new edition? I guess both games would sell at least a couple of hundred of copies each... Hotdog is one thing since, as Turbo Laser Lynx said, BPG had permission from the original copyright holder. But Relief Pitcher is a port of an Atari arcade machine. As such, I very much doubt that BPG or anyone related to the Lynx community is the actual copyright holder or a even legal licensee for that game. Unearthing lost prototypes does not make you copyright owner of its contents, as far as I know. BPG probably got away with releasing and distributing Relief Pitcher because Lynx is just too niche to be of any importance to current copyright holders, whoever they might be now after so many corporate mergers and buy-overs.
