johnluke Posted August 10, 2021 Share Posted August 10, 2021 Hi all, Newbie question, is there any chance to purchase any new release or homebrew for the 2600 by digital download rather than on physical cartridge? I mean either through this site or other websites/distributors as well. I don’t own an original machine and I play only with emulators or with my Flashback console. thanks!

+SpiceWare Posted August 10, 2021 Share Posted August 10, 2021 @johnnywc sells digital downloads of his games via his site Champ Games, My games will be available for digital download via AtariAge once the new website software is in place: On 6/29/2021 at 4:47 PM, Albert said: I will be adding digital downloads to the store once I move the store to new software (which I'm already paying for!) After I get all the new games shipped and am completely caught up with orders, I will be taking a much-needed vacation. Upon my return, getting the new software up and running will be one of my top priorities (another is having new 2600 shells made, and getting the forum upgraded, will be working on all three in parallel, as well as the next wave of games!) The new store will be very nice compared to what I'm running now! Also will be adding a "Downloads" section to the forums (something I wanted to have done a while ago) which will allow any authors to put their game binaries up in a central location, either for free or for sale (or both!) Will be great for development, as it supports versioning including a changelog and new screenshots you can attach to each version. It's pretty cool. ..Al 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As Darrell mentioned above (and quoted a post I made recently), I will be adding digital purchases of homebrew games directly in the AtariAge Store as soon as I get it moved to new software, which has been a long time coming and something I am working on now. ..Al 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
