Now the 5200 developers can benefit from _atari5200os.h header file. Awesome - I was considering an attempt to do a 5200 version of one of my own 8-bit projects... (Although that is ca65, but I still appreciate you doing one for cc65!) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baktra Posted December 27, 2020 Author Share Posted December 27, 2020 The game now has a home at http://baha.webowna.cz/2020/12/26/train-123-for-atari-5200/ and becomes the very last product of the now defunct BAHA Software brand. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

By the way, the game booklet uses the A6 page size (a quarter of A4). What would be the closest equivalent paper size (shall we say one quarter of 'letter') in USA?

baktra Posted April 7, 2021 Author Share Posted April 7, 2021 It is time to share the source code. Download source archive from the game home page. The source code uses conditional compilation and conditional assembly to create three engines from one source. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've never tried this one. It reminds me of Snafu on Intellivision but with trains. I thought the controllers worked well. I had to wait for it to start because it didn't start when I press the start button. Everything else works great! Thanks so much for your work and adding the Train game to the 5200 library.

Thank you for playing. I actually originally released the game for the 8-bit computer line. I decided to port it to 5200 later. I had to make some compromises, i.e. remove the in-game music, but it still plays well. I am planning one more update - configurable joystick dead zone.

Yeah, it's a fun game. I'm actually good at using the 5200 sticks and was able to play decent but a dead zone would be perfect. Thanks again for your work!
