Thomas Jentzsch Posted April 26, 2012 Share Posted April 26, 2012 What happens to the name of this release, since Williamson is also releasing a Star Castle? How about "Ring War" which was the working title for Star Castle at Cinematronics. Ttocs' Revenge Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iesposta Posted April 26, 2012 Author Share Posted April 26, 2012 Names I propose: 1. Star Castle 2. Star Castle 2600 3. Star Castle VCS (or is VCS like IBM? The business machine co, not the intercontinental ballistic missile) 3. See #1. Also _don't sell them_. For a donation to AtariAge, you get a free Melody Board...

+LS650 Posted April 27, 2012 Share Posted April 27, 2012 I don't think anyone's going to confuse the two different releases; in fact I suspect a lot of posters here will get a copy of both so they can compare the two. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This. I see nothing wrong with calling it Star Castle. It *is* Star Castle after all, and I think that history will delineate them versions by programmer rather by game name. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lucifershalo Posted May 3, 2012 Share Posted May 3, 2012 does someone know the main differences between cd-ws version and the other one? which one seems to be the best one? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Nathan Strum Posted May 3, 2012 Share Posted May 3, 2012 does someone know the main differences between cd-ws version and the other one? which one seems to be the best one? You can download and play Chris' to see how his works. For the other, you'll just have to rely on , since only a handful of people have ever played it. That said, I can tell you Chris is making every effort to make his version as close to the arcade game as possible. You can check out his progress in his blog to see the game's development.

lapetino Posted May 3, 2012 Share Posted May 3, 2012 I think this game is looking great. Great work, Chris and all. But I'm getting pretty tired of people who aren't able to praise this version without backhandedly bashing the other. Come on. There is room for more than one approach to the game and getting it out into the world. It's all good for the hobby and the life of our beloved 2600. If you don't want to buy Scott's, fine, but you don't need to keep commenting on it. Move along, move along. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thomas Jentzsch Posted May 3, 2012 Share Posted May 3, 2012 But I'm getting pretty tired of people who aren't able to praise this version without backhandedly bashing the other. I don't think anybody has criticized Scott's game. Actually that would be quite impossible (and unfair) by now, since AFAIK nobody has been able to play it yet.
