lonesome_pa Posted December 9, 2002 Share Posted December 9, 2002 Cool. I loved that game. By any chance, are they any screenshots yet? A rough release date? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sir Plus Posted December 9, 2002 Share Posted December 9, 2002 You guys should really check out the hacks page.... there's a lot of really good stuff there. In the lower-left of the label, you will see your answer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thomas Jentzsch Posted December 9, 2002 Share Posted December 9, 2002 You guys should really check out the hacks page....there's a lot of really good stuff there. In the lower-left of the label, you will see your answer Yup, though you should try Cybergoth Galaxian to get the right impression. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sir Plus Posted December 9, 2002 Share Posted December 9, 2002 Oops! Good point (I thought that he did both of them)! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thomas Jentzsch Posted December 9, 2002 Share Posted December 9, 2002 Oops! Good point (I thought that he did both of them)! AFAIK, the Cybergoth version is based on Jess' version, just with removed borders. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's why y'all shouldve bought a Cuttle Cart when you had the chance! .. although I'll admit that label looks mighty tasty.. hmmm.. I just might have to fork out for dedicated carts for hacks/homebrews sometime soon enough Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sir Plus Posted December 9, 2002 Share Posted December 9, 2002 That's why y'all shouldve bought a Cuttle Cart when you had the chance! Could you rub the salt in a little deeper please. Dont forget the eyes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snider-man Posted December 9, 2002 Share Posted December 9, 2002 although I'll admit that label looks mighty tasty You should see some of the labels Hozer is providing too. Damn. It looks like EVERYONE is producing some real quality works. Carts that actually look like they rolled off the Atari assembly line just today. Makes the original VII labels I cobbled together look quite...sniff...mundane... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Godzilla Posted December 9, 2002 Share Posted December 9, 2002 http://www.atariage.com/hack_page.html?Sys...oftwareHackID=1 is that it? I have to say that 2600 galaxian is one of the few 2600 arcade ports (like donkey kong,) that I thought had really bad gameplay compared to the arcade. Just doesn't capture it. At least it looks a damn sight better than donkey kong. :-) I'd love to see someone take a good 2600 platform game (like pitfall 2 or montezuma, for example,) and hack them into a GOOD 2600 donkey kong, or jr.

mvigor Posted December 9, 2002 Share Posted December 9, 2002 I checked out the Hack listing for this title... What is the difference between the original and this title? Slightly changed enemy and player graphics? Is that it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sir Plus Posted December 9, 2002 Share Posted December 9, 2002 As Thomas pointed out..... did you check BOTH hack listings? But yes, graphic changes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mvigor Posted December 9, 2002 Share Posted December 9, 2002 For anyone else who want to see, this is the correct hack to look at: http://www.atariage.com/hack_page.html?Sys...ftwareHackID=57 However, I wonder if the orange border was really removed, or if it is still there and is not colored black like the background.

Sir Plus Posted December 9, 2002 Share Posted December 9, 2002 There's a forum thread around here someplace. Use the search function with the words galaxian border to find it. The thread is a bit scrambled, though (why do they do that?? Is it me??). Did I say that the resident programmers are great?!? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slightly changed enemy and player graphics? Is that it? That and the removal of the border.. which sort of make's all the difference in my book. Galaxian was supposed to take place in SPACE, not some orange box Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NE146 Posted December 10, 2002 Share Posted December 10, 2002 NOW WE'RE TALKING BABY!!!!!!!1 That looks really sweet. Although as Rob can probably attest, I think A Better Pacman has had more name changes and more 3rd party labels than any other 2600 hack out there Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SS Posted December 10, 2002 Share Posted December 10, 2002 Here's another for your enjoyment! Oh yea, sign me up! That's one sweet looking label. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
foxglove9 Posted December 10, 2002 Share Posted December 10, 2002 I love that Pac-Man label!! The Galaxian one is nice too, but PacMan has always been my favorite. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
