About Me

Hey,

Well a little about me. I'm married and have a son and a daugher. I am actually young for the Atari 2600 generation, I was just old enough to start playing video games as the Super Nintendo came so I have no re-collection of the Atari 2600 being in productions.

I did own an Atari Lynx when it came out with one of my all time favorite games Chip's Challenge that was later stolen and I never got it back. I miss that system to this day, it was my favorite handheld.

Anyways I got my first Atari 2600 in 2000 but the only game I had for it was Super Breakout and it was neat and everything but I didn't do much with it. In the summer of 2009 I was at a yard sale and I got a 2600 with 27 games for 5 bucks. Lately I have been getting into older games, and I was wondering what made the Atari so great. Well now I know.

I am also a software engineer/programmer which is what my BA is in. However I have never programmed a video game before. I have been interested in Homebrew games in the past but there never seemed like a good language to do it in.

Well long story short I read about Batari Basic and with the help of several people I have two homebrew in the works. Atomic Meltdown and Candy Catcher which is currently available for Pre-Order!

Thats it for now, I will update this more later.

Thanks
Disjaukifa

Krezreb Pre-Order/Interest Thread

Thu Jan 12, 2012 1:26 PM

Hey Guys,

Up for pre-order is a game called Krezreb. This is a hack I did of my favorite 2600 game Berzerk! This is a mirror-universe game! You are an andriod stuck in an un-ending maze being chased by humans!!!! Here is the game binary and the concept label art (not yet finished), done by dobidy, that is going to be used for the game:

krezreB.bin 4K 27 downloads

Krezreb Teaser.png 227.86K 36 downloads

The game is going to be released after I get the rest of Candy Catcher shipped out which will be done later this month and the beginning of February. So the expected release time frame for Krezreb is going to be tentatively March.

The game is going to cost $25 shipped in the US. Members from other countries are invited to order but please message me for a quote on shipping, I do my best to keep it as low as possible! At this time I will not be taking payments, I basically want to see if there is enough interest in releasing this game. Basically if I can get 10 people interested, I'll do a run!

Also in the interest of keeping the cost down this will be a cartridge only release unless demand for a full CIB is wanted, then I will look into doing it as well, however both version will be available.
