NostAlgae37 Posted November 26, 2017 Share Posted November 26, 2017 I keep checking the store for Froggie, and it never shows up for sale. I saw photos of the cartridge, manual, and box in another thread awhile back and have been eagerly awaiting its arrival since. Does it have something to do with a shortage of available pokeys? If so, I have one to spare (although I was saving it for tep392's Dig Dug PK/XM should it ever see fruition). Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AtariBrian Posted November 26, 2017 Share Posted November 26, 2017 If I remember correctly there were some finishing touches left to do on the game ? Maybe I am completely wrong but that's what I thought . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AtariBrian Posted November 26, 2017 Share Posted November 26, 2017 I was saving it for tep392's Dig Dug PK/XM should it ever see fruition Oh yeah I have been waiting for that one also .

I've put that project on hold until the XM actually ships and my plan is for it to use the Yamaha sound chip. There won't be a POKEY version. I have something else in the works right now that I'm very excited about. The new project will have TIA and POKEY support. 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dauber Posted November 26, 2017 Share Posted November 26, 2017 Froggie as it is right now is fully playable (from what I can tell, at least) and supports both TIA and POKEY. The TIA version sounds surprisingly good, and the POKEY version will probably make you need to change your pants. I did notice though that theres no real sound for when the frog makes it to its destination, though, so it needs at least that much still done.

MrBeefy Posted November 27, 2017 Share Posted November 27, 2017 "You do not have permission to view this forum." Its for subscribers only. Basically hope for early 2018. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+sixersfan105 Posted November 27, 2017 Share Posted November 27, 2017 Official world from Al, for those that do not have access to the subscriber forum: the author is making some tweaks to the TIA version, which is why Froggie is not yet available for sale. There will be both a TIA and Pokey version available in early 2018 but youll have to supply your own Pokey if you want that version. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CPUWIZ Posted November 27, 2017 Share Posted November 27, 2017 "You do not have permission to view this forum." Sorry, I forgot about that, you can only view that forum as a subscriber, or staff member. Al stated it will go on sale early next year and the author is improving the TIA only version at the moment. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jinks Posted November 27, 2017 Share Posted November 27, 2017 I will probably go for tia if it makes the ribbit on the splash screen sound. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which reminds me, I need to renew. Apparently my yearly sub has lapsed. Froggie as it is right now is fully playable (from what I can tell, at least) and supports both TIA and POKEY. The TIA version sounds surprisingly good, and the POKEY version will probably make you need to change your pants. I did notice though that theres no real sound for when the frog makes it to its destination, though, so it needs at least that much still done. How good is the TIA audio? Due to the scarcity of Pokeys, I may hold onto my lone Pokey chip for a future project (or upgraded Pacman Collection ). The TIA music in Beef Drop (RIP Ken Siders ) was fine by me, so if Froggie is comparable, I may hold off on a Pokey variant for now.
