Games For Your Intellivision Posted June 14, 2012 Share Posted June 14, 2012 I went to the printer's today, and the graphic designer drove Adobe, and I 'steered'. This is what the D2K Box is going to look like barring a few tweaks. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rev Posted June 14, 2012 Share Posted June 14, 2012 1st! Willy, that looks very nice. Glad to see it all come together. I think this beautiful box may translate into a jump in sales. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Games For Your Intellivision Posted June 14, 2012 Author Share Posted June 14, 2012 This is just a mock up.....the real one will be glossier I believe, and fit together better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+evg2000 Posted June 15, 2012 Share Posted June 15, 2012 This is just a mock up.....the real one will be glossier I believe, and fit together better. You should try and sell the mock up as a prototype box to raise some funds for future development. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+cmart604 Posted June 15, 2012 Share Posted June 15, 2012 Wow, that looks fantastic! The blue looks really good as a box colour and I'm a big fan of the logo and the artwork on the inside flaps of the box. Great idea to carry it over from the outside to the inside. My 3 or 4 copies are going to look great on my shelves. Wait, auction for a proto box!?!?!? I'm in! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fushek Posted June 15, 2012 Share Posted June 15, 2012 That is nothing short of incredible. Really reminds you of the old days of opening that flap and pulling out your game. You guys have truly outdone yourself on this one ... and true fans of the old system appreciate the extra attention to detail! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+wood_jl Posted June 15, 2012 Share Posted June 15, 2012 Even as a "bought mine without the box" man, I must say that is extremely professional! Excellent work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SlowCoder Posted June 15, 2012 Share Posted June 15, 2012 Though I don't intentionally collect CIB, I'll add this: Some of these guys have really creative skills. I appreciate the hard work that goes into keeping the hobby moving forward! Thank you! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sqoon Posted June 16, 2012 Share Posted June 16, 2012 I'm a collector, but don't understand slobbering over boxes. The box looks really nice, and I may pick one up just to get the overlays, but obsessing over game packaging has never been my forte.

To me they are my kind of "art", and just a great part of the nostalgia. While I play my games a lot, I also spend a lot of time looking through the manuals, checking out the boxes, etc. All part of the experience. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Games For Your Intellivision Posted June 17, 2012 Author Share Posted June 17, 2012 Personally, I don't understand why people care about the overlays.....this game does not need them.....jump on the upper side buttons....8 for pause....end of story. The box at least has a function in that you can put the game on the shelf like a book. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Games For Your Intellivision Posted June 17, 2012 Author Share Posted June 17, 2012 Design some D1K Arcade overlays......we are going to be running them in a couple of weeks..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+JasonlikesINTV Posted June 17, 2012 Share Posted June 17, 2012 I agree with Cmart about the art side of the games. I never care when games don't need their overlays. I wish all games had overlays. They almost have a comic book or baseball card appeal to them. Boxes are cool too. Worm Whomper uses actual art Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
