Crazy Climber Posted November 30, 2007 Share Posted November 30, 2007 I was just wondering if there were any updates. I received the confirmation email awhile back but nothing else. Anyone know anything? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Helmet Posted November 30, 2007 Share Posted November 30, 2007 I'm pretty sure that he's planning on emailing anyone that got on the list when there is more information. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mos6507 Posted February 13, 2008 Share Posted February 13, 2008 (edited) I'm sooo happy that the game got polished off instead of the usual process of releasing unfinished protos (like Elevator Action) that had so much potential but were just shy of greatness. :):) From the email: "With the help of John Payson, we decided to go ahead and clean up some of the code in the game. One thing led to another, a few bugs were swatted, remaining memory was surveyed, and we decided to add some new levels to the original game. At this point the game is done and we are waiting for our friends at Atari Age to get us the first run of production carts.All in all, I think the current game provides a significantly better play experience now then it did when I first decided to release the game late last year."

Red 5 Posted February 13, 2008 Share Posted February 13, 2008 I got an e-mail too. I can't wait. More levels is a good reason for a delay. After Tunnel Runner, Fathom is my favorite 2600 game. And who doesn't love Missile Command, Demon Attack, Cosmic Ark or Night Driver. Mr. Fulop is one of the best in my book. No offense to the great homebrews out there, but it sure is cool to have one of the original programmers releasing a new 2600 game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Emehr Posted February 15, 2008 Share Posted February 15, 2008 Any chance of a non-exclusive run of carts? with manual? or is this gonna be it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shawn Posted February 15, 2008 Share Posted February 15, 2008 Any chance of a non-exclusive run of carts? with manual? or is this gonna be it? not that I'm aware of. And if your not on the mailing list I'm pretty sure it's gonna be a real pain to get on it now, at least for the first batch. I know I'm in on the first batch Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atari Charles Posted February 15, 2008 Share Posted February 15, 2008 There isn't going to be a second batch. From what I have been told he is making a one time run of 250 carts and that's it. I am not sure how many are gone, but visit his site and sign up, there may be some left. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
