I've only played it emulated but it's pretty good. I'd get it it if the price was right, it's always good to support homebrews.

Seems like there are quite a few Colecovision homebrew games out there that are no longer available. It would be really cool if AA could produce these! :)

 

I have been collecting classic games for years, but didn't really get into the homebrew collecting scene until a year or two ago. Before then I would always just play the homebrews via emulation.

 

It seems like alot the releases from the last 5 years or so are not available anymore. :sad: That is especially true for CV games, and Atari repro's. I used to look at them and think...someday I'll get around to ordering those..then one day they were all gone...and I am left beating myself up for being such a procrastinator...grrr.

I find it strange that you don't like the Vectrex version of Star Castle. I prefer the original vectors to any raster version anyday!

 

BTW, I'm still dying for a copy of Steamroller, should anyone ever have any plans to re-release it (I know it's not a homebrew, but it isn't available anymore).
