+Gemintronic Posted November 7, 2016 Share Posted November 7, 2016 He's not using rB+. He's using the API. I didn't remember if he helped with the API or he was associated in a different way. My bad Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sapicco Posted November 7, 2016 Share Posted November 7, 2016 Thanks for the update! Just know that if you do complete this, there's about 100-200 carts you can unload easy to the people on this forum. I'm in for a few. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KidGameR186496 Posted November 7, 2016 Share Posted November 7, 2016 Some of the people on the Facebook group would be in treat for a copy as well,myself included. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Gemintronic Posted November 7, 2016 Share Posted November 7, 2016 I write an occasional review for Retro Gaming Mag. Although I actually buy the games I review instead of beg for free stuff. I'd definitely do what I can to holler about the game and its kickstarter if it goes that route. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+madman Posted November 7, 2016 Share Posted November 7, 2016 Guys, he already said it'll come out when it comes out. I don't think telling him that you'll buy a copy is going to make any difference. Now we're talking about publicizing a non-existent kickstarter for an unfinished game where the developer literally just told us he has no formal timeline? The fumes are stronger than ever. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not asking for a pre-order or anything. Just stating that I don't ask for freebies. That's actually a thing for "reviewers" and "journalists" these days. Neither of which I am. I'm just a developer and gamer who occasionally writes. UPDATE: Oh, oops! Not talking about me. *ducks* 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Based on what? 200 is an exceptional number of sales for a Jaguar game. Or are you planning on buying 100 copies yourself? 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sapicco Posted November 8, 2016 Share Posted November 8, 2016 Ok, closer to 100 then. Ill buy at least two ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WAVE 1 GAMES Posted November 8, 2016 Share Posted November 8, 2016 I like the spritework I've seen on this. Very rich in color. Was this on another plaform originally or is this an original creation for the Jag? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+madman Posted November 8, 2016 Share Posted November 8, 2016 Really? Based on what? 200 is an exceptional number of sales for a Jaguar game. Or are you planning on buying 100 copies yourself? Based on fume logic; it's similar to fuzzy logic, but instead of being based on degrees of truth it's based on strength of fumes. This is a far less severe case than the guy last year who was speculating that Minter could make several hundred thousand dollars by making a new Jag game. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I assume based on the title and style of game that it's based on the arcade and Colecovision game Lady Bug: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lady_Bug_(video_game) Confirmed by this video: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WAVE 1 GAMES Posted November 8, 2016 Share Posted November 8, 2016 Never played ladybug before. Never even seen a cabinet like that before. Might be worth a MAME download. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+madman Posted November 8, 2016 Share Posted November 8, 2016 Mr. Do was also in the same cabinet, as I imagine were other games made by the same company. Hopefully all these facts aren't annoying Atlantis. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KidGameR186496 Posted November 8, 2016 Share Posted November 8, 2016 Never played ladybug before. Never even seen a cabinet like that before. Might be worth a MAME download. It's a good pac-man close if you ask me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+LS650 Posted November 8, 2016 Share Posted November 8, 2016 (edited) It's a good pac-man close if you ask me. In some ways, it's a much deeper and better game. There's a lot of strategy that goes into opening and closing the gates, or tricking the enemies into stumbling into a poison skull. Atariage has a superb version of Ladybug available right here for the 2600, and there are decent versions for the Coleco and Intellivision. https://atariage.com/store/index.php?l=product_detail&p=829 Edited November 8, 2016 by ls650 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+madman Posted November 8, 2016 Share Posted November 8, 2016 I would also argue it's not a Pac Man clone. Clean Sweep on the Vectrex or more famously KC Munchkin on the O^2, those are Pac Man clones. It's a maze chase game, but as mentioned deeper gameplay. The 2600 looks pretty great considering the hardware it's on, though the Coleco is probably the go-to home version. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+LS650 Posted January 23, 2023 Share Posted January 23, 2023 I was playing Ladybug on my Intellivision last night - great game - and it got me wondering if there were ever any updates to this. I suppose not... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
