ron_burgundy Posted November 3, 2005 Share Posted November 3, 2005 This will be a great game I love BMX airmaster and Skate OR Die is even better! I have played the WIP already at Shawns house (although he won't let me have a ROM ) and it is alot of fun and it's only half done. Trust me on this one it's gonna be awsome. Wait till you see the label I was angry when he said that he was hacking BMX airmaster but now that I have seen\played it I'm not angry, I'm impressed!!

Shawn Posted November 3, 2005 Author Share Posted November 3, 2005 (edited) So...is someone working on the label...I had started one, but it wasn't so cool yet... 959374[/snapback] Go ahead and take a crack at it if you want. I do have idea's and some rough drafts for the label that look pretty good but I'm open to any idea's anyone has. EDIT: So what do you guys think Red Label, Silver Label or Original Black picture?

kisrael Posted November 3, 2005 Share Posted November 3, 2005 I wonder if you could come anywhere near the coolness of the loading screen theme music? That was one of my favorite parts. For the record, the C64 version of this really put the later NES port to shame. The C64 was pretty amazing, I thought it looked Amiga-esque. And the way the skater rotated 360 in pseudo-3D...good times, good times Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ATARIeric Posted November 3, 2005 Share Posted November 3, 2005 (edited) Silver Label: 959470[/snapback] I think the silver label is nicer looking out of the two so far Edited November 3, 2005 by ATARIeric Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Helmet Posted November 3, 2005 Share Posted November 3, 2005 Silver Label: 959470[/snapback] I think the silver label is nicer looking out of the two so far 959473[/snapback] I agree after making them both...the silver one turned out better.

Shawn Posted November 3, 2005 Author Share Posted November 3, 2005 How about a WIP .bin file to test? 959472[/snapback] I'm not satisfied with whats done so far. Wait a bit and maybe I'll post it for Christmas (about the same time the Carts are for sale). @lord_helmet: lol... Thats the same label I was making..lol.. I scanned the NES box and came up with THE EXACT same thing. I guess it would be a no brainer as to what it should look like But AWSOME job man. I only made a RED & Black but the Silver looks SWEET!!

Might see about changing the colors around a bit but I like them the way they are. I want to make this game for mauself first and foremost becuase when I got BMX Airmaster all I could think about was how cool it would be to have the same game but skateboarding. Soo.. I'm making it..lol.. Nothig like throwing a Classic name at it too!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Till next time, Shawn Sr. 959546[/snapback] Ha! Great minds think alike! Maybe you could release it with a choice of labels? 959602[/snapback] That might be possible. I'm thinking 20 or 30 carts would be about the most I can make seeing as this whole deal is a one man operation (me) and I don't think ( I could be wrong) that there would be any more intrest than about that many carts anyhow. So perhaps 15 red & 15 silver (?). I know for sure that carts will be numbered with #0 of #30 being mine of course and LIMITED EDITION on the label in case I have to make more in the future, This is all just off the top of my head also so nothing is in stone seeing as the game is a month or two from being done anyway..lol.. "Don't count the chickens" as I was once told. I will have to see what the response is like, I will do a poll a little later to see what the masses have to say to see if it's worth doing 2 different labels or not or if 30 carts would be too many in the first place cause I can't really afford to make TOO many extras as I don't want to sit on them, But you have a good idea with having a "variant" label. So what one will be the standard one, red or silver?? lol.. "Only The Shadow Knows" Edited November 3, 2005 by silver_surfer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clint Thompson Posted November 4, 2005 Share Posted November 4, 2005 Ok.. wow... this is awesome! I haven't bought any 2600 homebrews before ( ) (with the exception of one label change) but this I would most definately buy! I want the red label version however... being it's a 1990 game red is more fitting imo. Very nice work!!!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I iam up to a solid version 0.5 after all my work yesrterday. Might be able to replease the carts sooner than expected. Also I thought about it, And there will be no ROM untill the carts are sold. Sorry if that sounds lame but those who bu the cart are in for a real great game. Just ask PacManPlus, Ron_Burgundy or Birdie3 (offical BETA Testers) Shawn Sr. Edited November 7, 2005 by silver_surfer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Helmet Posted November 6, 2005 Share Posted November 6, 2005 Great! Keep up the good work! If PMP is on the project, I am sure it will be top notch. I cant't wait for a cart! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PacManPlus Posted November 7, 2005 Share Posted November 7, 2005 No - this is all Silver_Surfer - I have not had any hand in this, other than testing it (which I need to do for the second version tonight)! BTW - this looks awesome so far. Great work SS! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
