ATARIPITBULL #1 Posted April 14, 2004 Today I received my Save Our Ship game from our own CPUWIZ and it looks great, the wooden box is well made, the cover label is too cool and for the low price he charged, you can't beat it!! Great work CPUWIZ and who ever else helped you. I got my good old #8 for my copy. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Zach #2 Posted April 14, 2004 That's good news. Last I heard, CPUWIZ was having trouble with his box supplier. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bigferret #4 Posted April 15, 2004 My #7 arrived today too, and it is way cool! Great job CPU! Love the box and the artwork is very nice. Thanks! It's a great addition to my collection. Now I guess I should pop it in and actually play it..... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Max-T #5 Posted April 15, 2004 I as well have either to have CPUWIZ tell me how much I need to wire him for my S.O.S or, as follows to receive it. But I'm being patient on purpose... Maybe I'll get my lucky #77 cart like I did last homebrew I ordered from AtariAge. Unless, of course, he didn't go up to 77. In which case, I'll settle for whatever. But, my second choice would be the number pi. (3.1415926535... -- that's all I can remember from memory) Irrational, aren't I? [whispers] that was math joke, he he Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MegaManFan I love the smell of the box. I agree! That as actually one of the first things I said to Z28 after opening - mmm, smells good. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

tantone56 #13 Posted May 2, 2004 I got my high score on this game to be 1880. How are you guys doing at it? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
video game addict #14 Posted May 2, 2004 6130 I could do better I just got lazy. It doesn't seem to get any tougher as it goes on. It's more a challenge if you let them get all the way to the top, then trying to fit them back down. I get in a pattern and just hit them on the head before the quite reach the top. I could do that all day, if I didn't have to scratch so much, I think it's a decent game, would be better if the speeds continued to speed up, or they came up at different speeds.

SteveW #15 Posted May 2, 2004 Picked up mine from the Post Office yesterday, but I haven't had time to plug it in. Plus, the storm in my area last night kept killing the electricity, so I didn't want to plug in my 7800. I need to play it tonight. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

adams_ale #19 Posted May 4, 2004 Number 23 came today. Thanks CPUWIZ! As with your other projects this is quality worksmanship. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ShyOne #20 Posted May 4, 2004 Having been responsible for most all the 'purty' parts on this project , I'll say thanks for all the thanks. Glad you all like them so well. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
adams_ale #21 Posted May 4, 2004 Yes, thank you ShyOne! Not one to usually notice such things, but it is quite the attractive cart. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gateway #22 Posted May 21, 2004 Got mine today! #30( the Last one of the bunch, or so I'm told... ) Agreed. Great work done by ShyOne and CPUWIZ! What will they cook up next? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
adams_ale #23 Posted May 21, 2004 I have a question as to the gameplay. If the pirate makes it to the top is there anyway to kill him or are you just shark bait? Played the game a few times, but didn't get especially far. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Whisper #24 Posted May 21, 2004 If any of the pirates make it to the top you're dead meat. Yes it's a silly game I'm seriously considering picking up Nuts at the store where I last spotted it for 30 Euro's today, if they still have it. It's a lot of money but having the Technovision collection complete in loose carts would be pretty cool. And I can justify spending 30 Euro, because Pharaoh's Curse didn't cost me anything (came with a console I bought for not too much) and I got Save Our Ship for only 4.95 Euro at a local game shop.
