Al,

I think you should put a pre-order notice on the front page of the website. I almost missed this post. pre-order coming soon...

I will probably do that shortly.

Lots of information in David's Blog (start here on Page 2 and scroll down a bit):

The games look great.I will have to wait until you reopen the store though, since I do not have paypal.

BTW, is Space Invaders new because I thought I saw that previously available from the AA store?

It's new to AtariAge, although it has been available for purchase elsewhere (although without the nice manual). You may be thinking of Space Invaders Collection for the ColecoVision, although that was some time ago.

And if you haven't looked at Juno First, I suggest starting here:

I'm confused. I want Juno, but am unable to go to the show. If I give you a payment via PayPal, could you just mail it to me?

Yes, that is the intent here.

Everything looks good, Al!

One small nitpick though about Dungeon: I noticed in the photo with cart and manual: One says "2008" and the other says "2009". Don't want you printing 50+ labels, posters, etc with different dates unless that is intentional?

Also, does it say in the manual that Dungeon was made with batariBasic? The game looks good on screen, but IIRC bB was used. Thanks

I've been reading this post and apparently your PayPal address is down. Which one should I use, or have you fixed it yet?

I'll make sure all the copyrights are updated.

It's on the back page of the manual.

It's actually working, this is a problem on PayPal's end when copying email addresses. Try typing it in manually and it should work just fine (sales@atariage.com).

Thanks,

Not sure what your point is, but yes bB is credited in the manual.

I actually missed that subtle and unwarranted jab.

I don't think he meant it as a jab, he is not like that.

I suppose there was a winking smiley, but sometimes you can't be too sure with emoticons.

True.

[Gateway]

Yeah CPUWIZ is right, no disrespect was intended on my part. Sorry for the confusion. I have high praise for Dungeon!

I am working on a game in batariBasic myself! It is a very good tool to learn programming!

I just noticed it wasn't on the front of the label. No biggie, but there is a distinction between bB and straight assembly, or a combo of the two.

s0c7, I have seen your blog about BiFrost, done in assembly. Nice work also!

If anything, saying it was designed with the use of bB is a nice little nod to an excellent resource that is helping a lot of people makes some really nice ideas into realities! I didn't see the jab, either.

No harm. No foul.

My early games were all bB, Dungeon is a hybrid, and now I've moved on to all asm. In the end though, it all about your creativity with what you have to work with.

You may want to check this out, the latest versions of Bifrost (my blog has earlier versions)-

Anyway, I wish you luck with your own bB game. I hope to see one of your carts in the Holiday Sale one day!

Juno First at least!

Money sent for Juno First and Dungeon (both PAL).
(I copied+pasted your address in Paypal and worked ok)

And Lead will be released in the future?

I'm interested in instructions for Space Invaders and Super PacMan too. Jr.Pacman don't work in my PAL 7800

I also sent you a PM
Thanks!

Indeed. I have to save some games for the holidays! And I'm looking for new candidates as well (hint hint, if any of you homebrew authors are reading!)

I'm selling the instructions for $5.00 each for those who are ordering other items.

I think you should post the shipping & handing amounts for people who don't know them. How can people PayPal him if they don't know it?

To keep things simple, shipping in the US/Canada will be $5.00 (Priority Mail in the US). Shipping outside the US/Canada will be $10. Dungeon Poster will be shipped carefully folded to 8 1/2" x 11" size. If you want it shipped in a tube, I can do that for an extra $5.
