idea for a game?

[d8thstar]

i have neither the expertise nor the sobriety to even attempt to program this. nor do i think it would even be feasible on the 2600 but maybe the 5200?

 

how about a port of the CLASSIC c64 game, space taxi? "hey taxi"

 

man, THAT would seriously ROCK!

I had thought about then when considering my upcoming project for the 2600 (Another Taxi game)... however, I think Space Taxi might be a little complicated for the 2600. It would be quite possible I think, but it would be hard to keep a lot of the flavor of the original (such as the voices, graphics, and interactive levels). Hell, it would probably be hard enough just putting numbers on all the platforms!

 

The 5200 is much better suited to a game like this. Perhaps the analog controls would actually make the game a little easier to play. The 7800 would work great too, though for some reason I prefer the idea of having this on the 5200.

 

I'd love to see some ports of classic C64 games though... the C64 had a lot of amazing games that really never got the recognition they deserved.
