the.golden.ax Posted January 19, 2013 Share Posted January 19, 2013 I think Ax thinks he's in the Impulse X thread :-) Really? I thought there was for both. If these isn't a KM cart coming then I need the CD at least. Brain fart. I finally got the Jag Kiosk running again last night. Didn't know where the key was since the move 2 years ago so I couldn't change anything out, or fix the monitor. Turned out it was on my car key ring. I'm getting old. Oh well. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sh3-rg Posted January 19, 2013 Author Share Posted January 19, 2013 Maybe you were getting mixed up with Rebooteroids? Both being spinner/shooty games... although one is slightly more impressive and fun than the other :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mtshark7 Posted January 28, 2013 Share Posted January 28, 2013 Sh3: what's the difference between the free downloadable version and the full purchasable version? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sh3-rg Posted January 28, 2013 Author Share Posted January 28, 2013 Sh3: what's the difference between the free downloadable version and the full purchasable version? The original version people discovered simple ways to rack up masses of points so we implemented a few things to promote good old fashioned honest play - it's now a more satisfying game to obtain high scores on. The warp ship animation is shinier in the final version and most sprites had a little bit of tinkering as well as the RMW clouds. You can input high scores at the Reboot site with the final version and US/NTSC users get the bonus of a Pause feature (that is sadly broken on PAL/50 machines and instead becomes a speedy quit-to-menu button ). It's basically the same game, you just get to have your own copy and support our future efforts - every single penny we "earn" from selling our games goes directly back into our Atari game making, we're not some kind of hit-n-run gouging outfit. Also, by buying from RGCD or GDG, you are also supporting those who help homebrewers get their games out in physical form (which is why, even though we do sell copies on eBay, we'd prefer not to... it's done to catch the few who are "out of the loop" forum-wise, such as those in Brazil and Japan for example, and by linking to RGCD in the listings hopefully people decide to purchase there instead as it's not only cheaper but where we'd really prefer people to buy them). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gunstar Posted February 1, 2013 Share Posted February 1, 2013 (edited) I've got a rotary controller in the mail, and if you have any left next week, I'll order a copy. I'll probably be getting Impulse X at the same time if any are left. I'm having an unusually good season for my business (but hey, it's Texas where the economy is booming like a whole other nation ), and am going Jag-spending-crazy right now and the last few months. I've been putting off getting a 3DO console again for all this too! Edited February 1, 2013 by Gunstar 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sh3-rg Posted March 4, 2013 Author Share Posted March 4, 2013 RGCD now has a proper online shop, KM:F can be bought there along with all those C64 goodies and who knows, maybe other platforms soon? So anyone who prefers to do their business in a basket and not "in person", knock yourselves out I think it should still be available from Good Deal Games in the US, although I've not checked on their status recently. Or if you have more money than sense you can buy direct from Reboot on eBay and have us pwnd with eBay, PayPal and Royal Mail fees. Keep an eye out for a new CD release within the next 4-6 weeks, hopefully in time for AC 2013, but can't be guaranteed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guitari Posted March 15, 2013 Share Posted March 15, 2013 Hey Sh3 - maybe a stupid question but how do you enable rotary mode in KM:F? Cheers! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guitari Posted March 15, 2013 Share Posted March 15, 2013 oh, well the rotary controller is nearly complete! works fine with tempest and impulse X. what could I be doing wrong? KM:F says current input 'Jagpad'...and this isn't meant to change to 'rotary' at any time? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sh3-rg Posted March 15, 2013 Author Share Posted March 15, 2013 It'll change to rotary when you spin your spinner Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guitari Posted March 15, 2013 Share Posted March 15, 2013 it's not happening for some reason..will play with it further... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sh3-rg Posted March 15, 2013 Author Share Posted March 15, 2013 First time I ever heard anyone say that. Just fired it up here to make sure, as soon as I flick the spinner it changes to "ROTARY". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guitari Posted March 15, 2013 Share Posted March 15, 2013 I'm such an a*se. It works perfectly! I wasn't spinning on the title screen - assuming I had to press option or something else to enable it. I'll play now with the trim values too! Thanks for clarification!!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

agradeneu Posted May 23, 2023 Share Posted May 23, 2023 Glad you Played the Redux Version. The graphics remaster was done in 2018, quite a long time ago. I think it still holds up. Compliments on the background finally! I remember a german forum was pretty brutal about it, picking on it immediately. Thanks for playing! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're welcome, it's an excellent game and very challenging! The background graphics are right on theme and really amazing! - James 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doctorclu Posted January 15 Share Posted January 15 Hey Reboot folk! Was playing this today while inside on the wintery storms, and of course I still enjoy a game of this from time to time. Great replayable game. If you ever feel the itch, I would love it if this game had Game Drive support to save the high score. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
