Gorf would look like crap on the Intellivision. It would be no better than the Atari version in the day. Probably worse. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought since it looks kind of similiar to Wizard of Wor which turned out fantastic,that it would port favorably over to the the Intellivision. Just my impression of course!

carlsson Posted September 22, 2020 Share Posted September 22, 2020 Wouldn't it be more fun if someone ports games that barely had any home versions before? It would seem to be one of the driving forces of Dr. Ports, with games such as Cosmic Avenger and Fantasy. Rather than GORF, you might be interested in Space Zap or Lazarian, without having analyzed how doable either game is (but surely the Intellivision should match the Bally Astrocade?). 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All ports are welcome to me that have not made it previously to the Intellivision. If they have been ported to other systems that doesnt help us folks who are mainly looking for support for the Intellivision. In that regard Gorf and the games you mentioned are all great candidates!

Games For Your Intellivision Posted September 23, 2020 Share Posted September 23, 2020 The Intellivision has half the vertical resolution of the Vic 20. I don't think that there is enough room or moving objects to make a decent port. I heard someone was working on Gorf, so I guess we will see soon.

+Steve Jones Posted September 23, 2020 Share Posted September 23, 2020 I believe Tarzilla was working on a Space Zap clone a while ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eisengrim Posted September 23, 2020 Share Posted September 23, 2020 I'm not the person who's working on Gorf, but I did play around with making the Flagship level as an IntyBASIC project. Maybe it's time to post it over on the programming section. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sinjinhawke Posted September 24, 2020 Share Posted September 24, 2020 Something a little less difficult than Miner2049er. Only on level 6 (Can't possibly be because I suck). Thank you for building save capability into it. Possible ports Timber Make Trax (maybe too similar to Steam Roller) Berzerk Mr. Do!

carlsson Posted September 24, 2020 Share Posted September 24, 2020 (edited) Timber is a good example of a somewhat well known arcade game (or at least from a well known developer/publisher) that never saw any home versions (*) so it'd be "exclusive" to the Intellivision if someone tackled it. There may be reasons why this kind-of follow-up to Tapper never got any home versions though. (*) Ok, the log rolling bonus round was implemented almost verbatim in World Games by Epyx.

Make Trax (maybe too similar to Steam Roller) Make Trax is a game I haven't thought about in many a moon. I used to play it at the local 7-11 before going to class in middle school in '84-'85. I don't think it has ever been ported to any system. Sorry for the interruption but it is TBT. Carry on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carlsson Posted September 24, 2020 Share Posted September 24, 2020 There was an official home version of Make Trax for the Neo Geo Pocket Color (!) plus at least one unlicensed clone for the Famicom. But yes, another example of a game barely seen outside of the arcades. I understand that Zookeeper as mentioned above also belongs to this category, though there have been a few Atari related ports lately. @IMBerzerk might want to look at the Cat Attack thread for an upcoming Rally-X type game. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, I saw that... But still added Rally-X to my list anyway. Zookeeper is a fun game as well. Pepper II, Amidar and Qix all come to mind as well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carlsson Posted September 24, 2020 Share Posted September 24, 2020 While it isn't an exact port of Qix, the IntyBASIC Showcase Vol. 3 includes Billy the Ball which is quite inspired by it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
