Ubuntu 11.10. Oneiric Ocelot and MiNT 1-17-0

Posted by Christos in Christos' Blog, 10 February 2012 · 35 views

It's been over a few weeks since I decided to move over to Ubuntu from windows. I have a dual boot system but I booted on windows only twice. One time to check something in the hardware from a windows only program, and another to see if it still works. I think I can do all the things I want from that, at the moment at least. Unfortunately I...

I found Pong!

Posted by atari2600land in atari2600land's Blog, 09 February 2012 · 39 views

I have too much junk! I had been wondering where this game went! When I got my used PS1 a few years ago, the first games I got were Missile Command and Pong. There wasn't really anything else the store had that I was interested in. Now I have about 20 different PS1 games, but Pong was still missing. So I was looking for my Sega Saturn...

Now I can really get back to work!

Posted by Random Terrain in Random Terrain's Tetraternarium, 04 February 2012 · 71 views

The nice table I got that rolls up over my La-Z-Boy recliner is a great help, but the size of the recliner has me too far away from my 24 inch monitor, so I've been using the zoom feature in my browser to read most of the time (even...

The right way to do it

Posted by Nathan Strum in (Insert stupid Blog name here), 03 February 2012 · 133 views

So... if you had a bunch of money, how cool would it be to gather up a bunch of the best programmers from the classic arcade era, and hire them to make new games?

You know... like Ed Rotberg (Battlezone), Owen Rubin (Major Havoc, Space Duel), Rich Adam (Gravitar, Missile Command), Ed Logg (Asteroids, Centipede), Tim Skelly (Rip-Off, Armor Attack,...

Syntax Terror Games Ltd is go!

Posted by Tickled_Pink in Tickled_Pink's Blog, 02 February 2012 · 61 views

12 months ago I set up a new business bank account for Syntax Terror Games, a new venture dealing in game development and current gen system repairs. Unfortunately I got severely sidetracked and have hardly used the account. In October, following the release of WP7 Mango, I decided to try my hand at a bit of Silverlight and created a relatively...

Just some musings.

Posted by NightSprinter in A Wandering Shadow's Travels, 28 January 2012 · 79 views

So, I start working again at Disney's Hollywood Studios again after almost a full year out on medical leave. I seriously have to thank my managers for busting their asses to ensure I stayed a part of the team. With my foot/ankle/leg recovered (playing Dance Dance Revolution for the first time in almost four years was great), I can actually...

Posted by jdrose in JDRose, 28 January 2012 · 105 views

The first couple of times trying to open a 2600 cartridge are tricky.
Once you figure out the pressure points it becomes fairly easy to do.

Here is a video I made that may help you a bit:

I want to program dead consoles

Posted by EricBall in EricBall's Tech Projects, 26 January 2012 · 132 views

In addition to the 2600 & 7800, I have the desire to program the Vectrex. I grew up in the golden age of video games and vector games were part of the magic. The Vectrex also uses a 6809 - the processor I first programming in ASM.

In brief, the way the Vectrex draws vectors is:
1. Set the Y velocity
2. Set the X velocity
3. Turn on the...

Still in the jungle

Posted by s0c7 in s0c7's Blog, 22 January 2012 · 115 views

I've been on hiatus for a while. Haven't even thought about coding for months, but I'm slowly coming back to it. Looks like some of the guys have been up to interesting stuff (cd-w, etc) lately.

I know it's a simple little game (and I have no intentions of making it more than 2k), but I am quite fond of Jungle Girl and am...

Here is another minor update to Star Castle:
The rings can now move at variable speeds - I have slowed them down a bit in this version.
The ring segment now disappear immediately when they are hit.
The rings will regenerate when the outer ring is removed.
The gun will fire projectiles at you when the inner ring is...

2,012 Pixels and Zero Tears

Posted by Chris++ in Chris++'s Blog, 04 January 2012 · 169 views

Exodus; emancipation; liberation. To soothe myself while enduring the glaring fact that I'm a grown man who's staying at his folks' house while he looks for his new apartment, his glorious fortress of creative solitude -- with the emphasis being on that final word -- I thank myself for having escaped an unsavory relationship.

Fan Translating Comic Books

Posted by Vic George 2K3 in Vic George 2K3's Blog, 02 January 2012 · 165 views

For the past few months I've been doing fan translations of European Smurf comic books that haven't seen an English translation in years. Most of my work is done using Google Translate, plus a lot of creativity and some familiarity with the characters. So far the ones I've translated are: The Wild Smurf, The Finance Smurf, You...
