I know this may already be here, but... (New Inty games?)

[Godzilla]

Is there any new news on those awesome looking forthcoming intellivision games (The kings quest type game, etc.) They were all being done by one programmer IIRC... Thanks in advance and sorry if it's already here somewhere...

I don't know specifics in terms of titles, but I was told that there are some new homebrews in the works. I know who is going to release them, but I don't know if it is ok to release the name of the guy who is releasing them or not.

Whats the deal with people in the classic gaming community and not wanting people to know their names? I notice this a lot around here, with developers, members of the boards, and many other things...

[Godzilla]

well I didn't know it was such a big secret, I mean he released demo roms and has shown the stuff and what not. I just want to know if there is any idea if/when we can expect something to plug into our intys? based on what I've seen, they look awesome, and I don't see any reason why we shouldn't be excited or drumming up some enthusiasm for arnauld!

[Stingray]

Well I'd like to know who's making them and when they will be available... unless it's a big secret and you'll have to kill me if you tell me.

Here's the web site, that hasn't been update since I first saw it...

still looks awesome, and this guy really does some amazing stuff with the inty. His 'scene' demo is super sweet, and I -LOVE- his music.

[Stingray]

"Castle" looks pretty sweet! So none of this stuff ever made it into cart form then?

Unfortunately, the nature of the INTV means that if any of this stuff does make it out in cart form, it will likely be rather expensive. Unless someone found a way around that whole "custom ROM chips" problem without telling me.

Ah, well being a total programming dummy, I was unaware of that issue. That's a shame, I'd love to see some INTV hombrews.

Yea, me too. Kinda why I wrote this topic :-)

I paid $38.50 (including shipping) for 4-tris which is the only Intellivision homebrew that I own. 4-tris came with the cartridge, box, color manual, and 2 overlays. I thought that the price was very fair.

 

The reason that I didn't disclose the name of the guy who is releasing the games is because I have not spoken to him about it. Someone else told me and I would feel bad if I mentioned his name and he was flooded with emails.

So I'm assuming that the whole custom rom thing is the reason why I've never seen any INTV multicarts.

Is there anywhere to still buy 4tris?

Several years ago I contacted Blue Sky Rangers to see if they would make one. It took a long time but they finally emailed me back and indicated that they were thinking of making a multicart. The intellicart was released and I guess that they decided against doing one.
