emkay Posted April 9, 2005 Share Posted April 9, 2005 http://www.pouet.net/prod.php?which=16405 A crazy game by crazy people as "SquoQuo" and "Metalvotzen". The most interesting thing is, that those guys are not ATARI related. They just do silly stuff It's actually the only prod. from the Breakpoint 2005.

emkay Posted April 10, 2005 Author Share Posted April 10, 2005 Have a look at some other Prods. from that guys, will make it more clear how "crazy" they are But, there is one small "impressive" fact: They did that "Game" during the Breakpoint event, in 15 hours, without deeper knowledge of the Hardware. They just used the A8(emulation) to create their 96K entry. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
_Fandal_ Posted April 10, 2005 Share Posted April 10, 2005 Well, I think it isn't so bad game. May be it's crazy but it really isn't so bad. Unfortunately it doesn't work on my real PAL Atari at all - it's crashing when leaving the title screen. And in the emulator I was able to start it just once from more than 20 attempts - the crash comes when "selecting" destination... F. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sack-c0s Posted April 10, 2005 Share Posted April 10, 2005 Ahh - I remember SquoQuo from my archimedes days... didn't realise they were still around Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mr-atari Posted April 10, 2005 Share Posted April 10, 2005 Nice to see a new game for the A8 in a while. Great fun. Keep it up! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+CharlieChaplin Posted April 17, 2005 Share Posted April 17, 2005 Alas, Fandal is right - the game does not work on a real A8. it hangs at the select screen... can anyone correct this ?!? -Andreas. P.S.: I hate A8 programs that work only with the emulator... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tschibo00 Posted April 23, 2006 Share Posted April 23, 2006 Hm, the final version does definitely work on my real Atari, just tested it... ShitAlpin 2005 (final) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
_Fandal_ Posted April 24, 2006 Share Posted April 24, 2006 Hm, the final version does definitely work on my real Atari, just tested it...ShitAlpin 2005 (final) Yeap, it's really working now though it still has some issues. Fortunately there's RESET key... Crazy game but good work man! F. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
miker Posted April 24, 2006 Share Posted April 24, 2006 It works on real hardware but it's rather unplayable. The gates are... "drunk"! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
urborg Posted April 26, 2006 Share Posted April 26, 2006 Hm, the final version does definitely work on my real Atari, just tested it...ShitAlpin 2005 (final) Good work, it could be very nice game to play, but for now it is practicly unplayable and has many bugs and crashes from time to time. But it could be very nice game with some chnges and improvements. I think that the game is too hard, and some gates are practically impossible to reach.

Tschibo00 Posted April 26, 2006 Share Posted April 26, 2006 To be honest, unreachable gates are part of the concept, since it was a parody on "Ski Alpin 2005" by 49 Games. You can successfully finish the game, but you really need to memorize the course and make extensive use of the brake. However, some gates are not reachable at all, but that's what the lives are for Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
