Ignorama Posted June 18, 2013 Share Posted June 18, 2013 I dont hear anything, I just read posts of a homebrewer who seems to be sulky and I dont see any reason why. Maybe I get everything wrong and its just ironic, in that case I apologize, but if you are really pissed off because someone criticizes your game I find it a bit embarassing.

Games For Your Intellivision Posted June 19, 2013 Share Posted June 19, 2013 Ignorama's first language isn't English, so it is easy to forgive that he doesn't understand your implication of something 'going over his head'.......which is an expression that he may not even know.

I speak English, but it flew right over my head too! Liked the vid of FC:R, funky seeing it look like that & yet still moving like the updated jag version does i must order my copy when payday comes around next week Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oscar G. Posted June 22, 2013 Share Posted June 22, 2013 (edited) Hey guys, I have just received my latest copy of Retro Gamer (no. 117) and in the section of Homebrews (p. 105) there is a small article on Groovy Bee and Rocketeer. Well done Groovy Bee! I hope that Retro Gamer interviews you some time Cheers! Edited June 22, 2013 by Oscar G. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+CyranoJ Posted June 22, 2013 Share Posted June 22, 2013 Oooh please let it be by Kieren 'The Liard' Hawken, I'm sure that'll go well! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mjarnold7 Posted June 22, 2013 Share Posted June 22, 2013 I want my Rocketeer ;( Lol! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fsuinnc Posted June 24, 2013 Share Posted June 24, 2013 I'm not trying to start problems or complain, its more out of excitement that I say this, but I want my "Rocketeer" too. GroovyBee, any ideas yet on a release date? I figure if I can get Rocketeer then I will have something to keep me occupied till the Mars mini games, and so on......

GroovyBee Posted July 9, 2013 Author Share Posted July 9, 2013 Sorry for the lack of updates on this lately. I haven't had very much "Inty love" free time in the last couple of months compared to the announcement of the project. There is still some coding work left to do but the game's graphics and music assets are all done. It also needs intensive beta testing to make sure its balanced out OK. The cart end label is pretty much done and I have a bunch of cleaned cart shells ready too. I'll probably have to do a cart shell drive after I've QA'd my existing stock of shells because some aren't homebrew quality. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ignorama Posted July 9, 2013 Share Posted July 9, 2013 (edited) Its not up to Groovy to sell this game, its an Elektronite title Edit - wrong thread Of course Rocketeer is a original Bee, but I am afraid you are too late, the pre order is closed for month now.

GroovyBee Posted July 9, 2013 Author Share Posted July 9, 2013 I am afraid you are too late, the pre order is closed for month now. When you sell homebrew games on pre-order you have people that express an interest and then drop out (for whatever reason) plus you also need to over order whatever goes into the physical release because not everything turns out 100% how you'd like it. In order to cover yourself you need to have "extras" available. Therefore anybody who has dropped me a PM asking for a copy of the game since the pre-order closed has gone onto the "extras" list. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ignorama Posted July 9, 2013 Share Posted July 9, 2013 I thought everyone paid right after the game was ordered, but good to know that the people who missed it get a second chance Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fsuinnc Posted July 20, 2013 Share Posted July 20, 2013 Any word on a Release/ship Date? I don't really mind the delay but the lack of info is getting to me. (Maybe a second teaser rom would help ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ignorama Posted July 20, 2013 Share Posted July 20, 2013 Please inform us BEFORE shipping, not "its shipped". I am on a vacation soon and if you ship it during my vacation the game will be send back to you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gaztee Posted July 22, 2013 Share Posted July 22, 2013 Summer in Great Britain? If the rumours are right it means warm rain Not this year, hoping to get some of that warm rain just as I head out the country to Lithuania And if your copy gets bumped back to Groovy, don't worry I'll give it a home Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
