opcode Posted March 22, 2014 Share Posted March 22, 2014 List of SGM games I am currently working on which will most probably see a release this year (2014)... - Goonies (Team Pixelboy) (100% done) - Knightmare (Team Pixelboy) (90% done, english title screen missing) - Twin Bee (Team Pixelboy) (95% done, going through alpha testing) - Ghostbusters (Team Pixelboy) (70% done, not fully playable yet) - Donkey Kong Arcade (Opcode Games) (80% done, missing bits here and there) Games that might see a release this year (2014): - Penguin Adventure (30% done, still porting) - Arkanoid (70% done, missing bits and controller support) * one or another, but not both.... Games with a tentative released date of 2015: - Stone of Wisdom (Team Pixelboy) (not yet started) - Spelunker (Team Pixelboy) (not yet started) Games I have started but with no firm release date: - Pengo (30%, intro done, working on gameplay) - DK Jr (10%, preliminary, same engine as DKA) - Dig Dug (10% preliminary, planning, graphics, etc. Same hardware as Galaga and Xevious, so really interested on this one) - Rally-X (20%, intro done, working on gameplay, engine for smooth scrolling designed, could be used for Bosconian) - Gradius (20% done, still porting) - Moon Patrol (10% done, really challenging game to port, simulated smooth terrain and car animation) - Maze of Galious (10% done, barely started) - Moon Cresta (30% done, not sure if worth finishing) - TRON game - grid engine done... - Yie Ar Kung-Fu II (done long ago) - Zanac (80% done, missing sound) - Bosconian MSX (not sure if porting this or the arcade instead or none) Disassembled games, but not yet started: - Time Pilot - Elevator Action - Zaxxon - Wild Western - Popeye - Mr Do! 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sega_SHARK Posted March 22, 2014 Share Posted March 22, 2014 So are we looking at a usual Christmas day release for the Team Pixelboy games and Donkey Kong before that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is Opcode's list...not Pixelboy's, so it looks like it's gonna be an expensive year!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pixelboy Posted March 22, 2014 Share Posted March 22, 2014 So are we looking at a usual Christmas day release for the Team Pixelboy games and Donkey Kong before that? Me and Eduardo just finalized a publishing deal today, and I'm not sure exactly when I'm going to release Goonies, Knightmare, TwinBee and Ghostbusters. I'm still currently unemployed so I have to watch how I spend my money. I may even run a pledge drive or pre-order effort to gather some funds to get the boxes prepared and printed. Once the boxes are done, the rest tends to fall into place (beta-testing, preparing the manuals, assembling cartridges, etc.). So that means I may release the games next fall instead of next Christmas. But I can't promise anything right now, I still have to evaluate the situation and try to plan ahead. It's possible I may release Ghostbusters early next year even if Eduardo finishes the software this year. But all these games are going to be released eventually before the end of 2015, that's for sure. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+cmart604 Posted March 22, 2014 Share Posted March 22, 2014 Wow! That's how you come back to the CV scene! Awesome list of games. I literally want every one of these titles, but of particular interest to me is the TRON game! sweet! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pixelboy Posted March 22, 2014 Share Posted March 22, 2014 - Zanac (80% done, missing sound) Adding sound to Zanac shouldn't take you very long, with the SGM's sound chip being the same as the MSX. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bennybingo Posted March 22, 2014 Share Posted March 22, 2014 This is Opcode's list...not Pixelboy's, so it looks like it's gonna be an expensive year!!! Guess I was wrong...this is one of those times when I am somewhat glad to stand corrected! I am always down for more CV games, but at the same time, I am happy that I won't be shelling out a couple more Benjamins this year just to keep up!

AtariBuff Posted March 22, 2014 Share Posted March 22, 2014 Looking forward to each of them. That's the spirit of keeping the ColecoVision alive and kicking @Pixelboy If you need help funding the releases shoot me a PM. Surely we can work out some co-publishing deal to get the releases out in a timely manner to saturate gamer's appetite for new exciting product.

Troy_Whelan Posted March 23, 2014 Share Posted March 23, 2014 That is an awesome picture! LOL If that is the high-horse Luc will be on then the next games from Team Pixelboy should be very interesting indeed! Troy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slab0meat Posted March 24, 2014 Share Posted March 24, 2014 Interesting that one of the two SGM's put onto eBay last night got bid on instead of bought outright. Up to the BIN price already ($150) with six days left. I'm curious to see the ending number. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
