For those that missed it, there is a guy that had his students create a bunch of bB games here:

All of these look really cool!

The topic to reply to about these is here

Yeah, pretty cool that he got his students to work on games like that.

A number of them are a lot better than some crap created with Bb that I have here on cart.

Three of them tried to take credit for Construction even though it was posted here by Mort. Plagairism!

I think you are kidding, but "Mort" was one of the students who created that game. We take plagiarism very very seriously at the university, so I'd just caution against using it in gest.

I don't think he was aware that Mort was one of the students. I suspected that he might have been, because I remember one or two students posting on this site to get help with using bB or figuring out how to do certain things on the 2600.

np, I just wanted to clarify. I encourage the students to come to this forum for help; it's a great community!

[atari2600land]

To clarify, I didn't know Mort was one of the students.

Thanks, I apologize for the confusion. Thanks for looking at the games!

For those that missed it (it was posted in a different forum) there were more bB games by students added to the page above in January! Wow!
