It took a bit longer but it's finally here:

Besides the usual new additions, there are quite a few bugfixes, mostly for better compatibility with the real hardware and recent players.
Thanks to all who contributed, namely 0xF, Mar0k, Miker, Ramos, Raster (we're missing you so much), Satari, and all the rest!

Title Capitalization

Tue Jan 31, 2012 3:37 AM

As I am running a blog about various Atari related affairs here at AtariAge, I noticed that the blog heading and subheading uses standard Title Capitalization Rules. However, my blog is in Czech language which does not use such rules. Would it be possible to make the title capitalization optional?

Marbled

Wed Aug 31, 2011 4:29 PM

Let me proudly introduce you to our newest production called Marbled.
We did it for ABBUC Software Contest 2011 and we hope that it will get some positive feedback.
The game is of puzzle type and the objective is to get a marble to the exit tile by exchanging various tiles in order to create a path. During a level, the marble has to collect all diamonds.

Note that we cannot release the game before the contest results are announced so please be patient :)

Requirements:
The game runs on a stock Atari 8-bit computer with 64 kBytes of RAM and a joystick. It was tested on PAL 800XL/XE models. It may work on NTSC machines with some glitches but we did not do any testing regarding NTSC compatibility because of lack of time.

Interesting facts:
  • The game is a conversion of a PC game „Marbles Deluxe“ made by RL Vision in 2001, which is actually a conversion of an old Amiga game Marbles released in 1991.
  • The development started in March 2011, with some long interruptions. The game was finished just on the day of ABBUC Contest deadline.
  • There are 92 levels in the game.
  • The game features a unique password system that includes player's score so that you can start where you left off even if you have turned off your computer in the meantime.
