Starcat Posted December 23, 2017 Share Posted December 23, 2017 Hey everybody, Here is a little something from Starcat Devocean for you to enjoy. I present: »HalMock FurBall – Sink or Swim« for the Atari Jaguar.Featuring:– Cartoony graphics– Fun one-button space hamster action– EEPROM highscore saving (if device supports it) The game is designed to run from RAM, so you need Virtual Jaguar (Alpine mode), a Skunkboard or similar dev kit or convert the game using Jiffi into a format you can use.Enjoy! http://www.starcat-dev.de 20 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+LS650 Posted December 23, 2017 Share Posted December 23, 2017 I will try this out when I get back home after the holidays. Thanks for posting! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Saturn Posted December 23, 2017 Share Posted December 23, 2017 This is great, thank you! Made it past levels 1 & 2. Taking out the rapid fire controller for the rest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clint Thompson Posted December 23, 2017 Share Posted December 23, 2017 I loaded this on my Skunk, it shows the intro StarCat Dev screen with what sounds like a short MIDI tune but then goes to a blank blue screen and nothing more. ...was wondering why the download file was 11.5MB lol... then noticed you included the emulator as well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Starcat Posted December 28, 2017 Author Share Posted December 28, 2017 I have seen the game can be picky on some Jaguars (usually before the first wave of levels though) and not get futher, but for me it was never reproducable when or why it happened. Retrying always fixed things for me. What setup do you have? I assume it's NTSC, K or M? Standard console with skunkboard or modified in some way? Yes, I figured people outside of the community might find the included VJ useful. I hope you still get to play and enjoy it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Felyx Posted December 30, 2017 Share Posted December 30, 2017 Thank you for sharing this. it is cool to see new games from you for our good old kitty Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Starcat Posted December 31, 2017 Author Share Posted December 31, 2017 @nicolaspersijn: Yes, it came with the Sound player. Then again I think it fits nicely and I credited the creator. So it stays until there is something better to replace it. @Felyx: You are welcome. Have fun! @Clint: Do you also have a K series you could test with? Other than that I'm using the same setup.

nicolaspersijn Posted January 1, 2018 Share Posted January 1, 2018 By the way, I'm having the same problem as Clint on my M model NTSC Jag, from a standard 2-chip cart pcb. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joeyaage Posted January 23, 2018 Share Posted January 23, 2018 Displays title screen and quickly goes to a blue screen. I have a PAL jaguar with the new Rev.3 skunkboard from Poland. Not sure if it is model M or model K. Will have to try it in virtual jaguar instead. What Dev environment are you using? Is it made with the Removers C library?

Starcat Posted March 30, 2018 Author Share Posted March 30, 2018 @joeyaage: Hmm. Please look on the back of your Jaguar. Is there a K or M near the serial number? I'm using my own dev environment, but sadly so far I have not discovered what causes instabilities between different Jag setups. I'm using PAL and NTSC K series with a skunkboard. In a few rare cases I had the blank screen problem, but couldn't reproduce what's causing it yet. If you're using Virtual Jaguar it should work fine.
