+D Train Posted October 20, 2019 Share Posted October 20, 2019 how's the crowd respons, Al? Are people losing their minds? Did you end up doing two galagon set-ups or just one? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AW127 Posted October 20, 2019 Share Posted October 20, 2019 (edited) I am especially excited about the announced two-player-simultan mode and how people have reacted to this. Must be alot of fun, to play this game as a team, i could imagine? And by the way - do i see some Commodore 1702 monitors there on this photo, surrounding the one on which Galagon runs?

Talking to him about his games was amazing, although he looked like he wanted to slap me when I whined that I didn’t like the 2600 as a platform...but I added that his games (and a LOT of other homebrews, like Mappy) BLEW MY MIND. Okay, I was a little hyper yesterday. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m sure I trampled a few people getting to the (one) Galagon station, but there were endless lineups for Aardvark and Arkanoid, so fair is fair. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You mean a 2600 version of the old arcade game Zookeeper? That would rock! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can’t impress upon you how amazing the PRGE arcade ports are. I kept saying to people “this is Zookeeper...on the 2600! Zookeeper!”, and would have monopolized the station, but it was next to Galagon, and well...you know how that turned out. Also: maybe it’s my eyes, but no flicker. How?? I could also not believe the quality of Aardvark. It plays like a dream...as did Venture Reloaded. And who did that amazing port of Avalanche? People were very impressed, let me tell you. On another note, I was told that only a few Galagon shirts were made and that “stock was low”. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also: maybe it’s my eyes, but no flicker. How?? It's your eyes. Zoo Keeper has a lot of flicker. Especially as you get further into the game. The number of objects on a horizontal row gets pretty insane. John has some ideas of how to reduce it, so I'm sure it'll be even better by the time it's finished. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GrizzLee Posted October 21, 2019 Share Posted October 21, 2019 Ok gang... picked up my copy at Portland... played all the games at Als booth. BtW, The AA booth was by far my favorite booth. (Note, the intellivision booth was a close second.) Love playing the new games on classic systems. They both had multiple systems setup with the new game to play. Now at home and playing my new games. Galagon, Wizard of Wor... what can i say.... better than sex !! These new 2600/7800 games are beyond anything dreamed possible when I was growing up. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+davidcalgary29 Posted October 22, 2019 Share Posted October 22, 2019 I snuck in some Galagon playtime tonight and it’s just as amazing as my first PRGE taste! I switched over to 7800 Galaga for a bit and found it plays like it’s in Granny mode. And I love Galaga on the 7800! I quickly switched back to Galagon. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
