A clarification is needed: this is not a game written in XB and then compiled, but is expressly designed for the compiler. You cannot literally play the game in XB. It's not slow, it does not work at all! ? 

 

It would be very interesting to see  how you did this. If you didn't write it in XB then it seems to me the only other option is to write it in compiled code, but that would be a nightmare. Was it a different language like forth or C?

I was intending that is not a slow, but usable XB program that was then compiled. It's in XB, but there is too much stuff for it to handle correctly, so was not able to use the interpreter for the debugging.

XB256 and XB 2.8 G.E.M. have RUNL1 which lets you chain programs together. This is a little trickier than having all the code in one program, but by doing this you might have been to chain two programs together and do the debugging in XB. Classic99 with CPU overdrive gets things moving at a decent rate even on my Dell dinosaur computer.

LAST DAYS TO ORDER: FEW COPIES LEFT! ? 

 

We are sending confirmation emails to people that have registered for the pre-order. If you haven't received any mail from the registration link (the initial has an issue...), please, let us know so we can reserve your copy. ? 

 

The manuals and labels should arrive in the next days from the professional printer service, so everything will be ready to be shipped in time for Christmas! ?

 

 

Some new photos will be posted in the next days!

 

 

Thanks for your support to the project.

I got something September 28 saying I am on the list.  That was when I indicated my interest. Nothing since.

 

on the web page it didn’t say what shipping was to North America.  Any idea?

You are in the list, an email will be sent soon. ?

I contacted you again just now, I did a few weeks ago but I guess that didn't work?

 

 

Sorry for the issue with the first link, now it was received correctly. We have some spare copies for the people that had such problem, so you'll receive your copy. ? You will receive soon an email with the various information required to process the request. Thanks for you support and apology for the inconvenient.

It's not yet on the market and the first bootleg copy is already in the wild... ?

 

Be patient, Christmas is approaching, you'll have to still wait to play it! ;-)
