Troy_Whelan Posted July 26, 2014 Share Posted July 26, 2014 No difference whatsoever. Sean Kelly (who is the main CGE organizer, if I'm not mistaken) gave me the ROM of the game with all sound effects included, and Mystery Man added a title screen to the ROM. As part of my deal with Sean, he gets to offer the game exclusively at CGE. So does that mean that the ROM will be the same but there is something indicating CGE (like the box or label) or does it simply mean with respect to sales?

When I say no difference whatsoever, I mean it. Same ROM, same box, same manual. There will be no way to differentiate copies bought at CGE from copies bought directly from Team Pixelboy or elsewhere. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

InfraMan Posted July 26, 2014 Share Posted July 26, 2014 October 2014: - Joust (wide release) - Subroc Super Game - The Goonies December 2014 (Christmas Day): - Knightmare - TwinBee - Jewel Panic March 2015: - Boxxle - Ghostbusters - The Stone of Wisdom - Spelunker That is a stunning lineup... my hype level is off the charts!

Pixelboy Posted July 26, 2014 Share Posted July 26, 2014 That is a stunning lineup... my hype level is off the charts! I'm hoping that The Stone of Wisdom and Spelunker will be done and ready by March 2015, but if Eduardo contemplates either porting those two MSX games or finishing Donkey Kong Arcade, I wouldn't mind it one bit if he went with DKA. The anticipation for DKA is much greater than for those other two MSX games. That's just my personal opinion, of course. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NIAD Posted July 26, 2014 Share Posted July 26, 2014 This new prototype version of Joust offers much more over the old prototype version that Sean Kelly released at CGE2K1. As far as I recall from talks with Sean, it has all the missing sound effects (don't know about any music), I think the higher skill levels work correctly (they did not in the old prototype) and of course, Mystery Man has added an all new title screen and there are some easter eggs that the Atari programmers used for testing purposes. So, you WILL want to get this one! The icing on the cake is that the guy that has the sound source code and would not share it in one way, shape or form will soon be irrelevant!!! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So should you still be calling it a prototype? Sounds like a complete game to me! (And no, there's no music, just sounds effects, but they are true to the arcade version.) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CGE Means: Classic Gaming Expo. CGE will sell Joust in September, then sold it through Team Pixelboy around October. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know what CGE is and I have been there. I asked the earlier question as sometimes the version released at CGE is unique; perhaps a unique label, unique title screen in the game, or a unique box. Luc cleared that up as both games are identical in every way. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
