atari2600land's Blog - GoSub gimmick

[RSS Bot]

Since GoSub isn't exactly a Ladybug, I was thinking I needed a gimmick to get people to buy it. Then I thought long and hard about what that gimmick would be. Then one word popped into my head: box.

 

Since Thrust+ seems to be the only homebrew with a box (correct me if I'm wrong), I was thinking of an optional $10 box. The amount now in its current form would be $25 since it's above 4k, and I've already put an easter egg in the game, and there's still a little room left for something else (see the GoSub topic in the homebrew games forums).

 

Also, once I get a final say on the final product, I'm going to hold a label contest (NOT a box contest. I'll be designing that myself, that is, if there'll be a box.) Hopefully, I'll get the contest AtariAge sponsored so more people will know about it and submit entries. So, what do y'all think about the box concept?
