Impaler_26 Posted January 24, 2009 Share Posted January 24, 2009 Only one month? I doubt that will be enough time to make a halfway decent game. Why not expand the deadline to November 1st? People would have enough time to make a "great" game and you could get it on cart as xmas present...

Wickeycolumbus Posted February 1, 2009 Share Posted February 1, 2009 I worked on this for only one night, its only a title screen.

Wp I will definately finish it some day, but now I have to focus my resources on another project (which will remain unnamed), but that will be done soon. Maybe I can finish it sometime in the summer Quote Link to comment https://forums.atariage.com/topic/136901-2600-fonz-contest/#findComment-1672491 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe I can finish it sometime in the summer We have waited since the VCS came out for it (Fonz shoulda been a release title) so waiting a few more months is a cakewalk Good on ya Rick! Can't wait to see the game progress in the near future.

Wickeycolumbus Posted February 1, 2009 Share Posted February 1, 2009 We have waited since the VCS came out for it (Fonz shoulda been a release title) It was planned to be released on the 2600? I did not know that, maybe there is a proto floating around...
