+save2600 Posted April 13, 2015 Share Posted April 13, 2015 Holy toledo, Oscar and crew have done it again! Pleasant surprise popped up in the mailbox Saturday. Had a "quick" go at it before work Sunday morning and lemme tell you, this game does not disappoint! Appreciate that it's not quite as relentless as the Colecovision version and that's a good thing especially when you consider the not_so_tactile side button action of an Intellivision controller. Upon my very first try, got up to level 3 (yes, it's a very long level!) and finished with a score of 51,870. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Lathe26 Posted April 13, 2015 Share Posted April 13, 2015 I gave it short bit of playtime as well. Very impressive. The Intellivision was missing having a good side-scrolling platformer game. I wonder how big of a hit this would have been back in the day. :-) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+save2600 Posted April 13, 2015 Share Posted April 13, 2015 I was going to touch on the Intellivision missing these types of platformer games and it still is when you think of the Mario games. Perhaps the Princess Quest engine could be tweaked into something more like Princess Rescue Quest. Instead of collecting coins though, could be C&D orders. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kiwi Posted April 14, 2015 Share Posted April 14, 2015 I finally got this game. This is one tough game. I made it to level 4, the cave level. That Lightning Armor still likes to take my lives away. I was thinking that the crosses in the Colecovision were the key to make the golden armor appear to make this boss fight easier. Instead, the armor appeared earlier in the level in this version.Level 4 is pretty difficult when everything takes many hits to kill with the initial weapon. It's very easy to die in this game, and I think some of the obstructable like water droplet were too fast to dodge. At least I can stop and take out enemies til their delicious bloody heart restores some of my health. Now my finger and thumb must recover, and I'll try again. *dips them into a mini spa.* Great game though. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UberArcade Posted April 14, 2015 Share Posted April 14, 2015 I received my copy. Everything looks great. Thanks for putting this game out. My one critique is I wish the box was made of thicker card stock. It is so fragile. Also those notches on the flap of the box make it impossible to open without bending the top all up. Maybe this can be addressed in newer game releases. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AtariBuff Posted April 14, 2015 Share Posted April 14, 2015 Exactly, compared to boxes from Team Pixelboy, the CollectorVision boxes are of a much thinner (and probably cheaper) cardboard. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+nanochess Posted April 14, 2015 Share Posted April 14, 2015 Received mine yesterday. Great job on this--both the game and packaging. I like the Colecovision version a hair better, but this conversion is as close as I believe one can get for the Intellivision and it is yet another game that pushes the system to new limits. Have made it to the third level twice now, but not to the third boss. I like this level best in the game so far but I'm starting to get the nagging suspicion there's no end to it. Seems longer than the first two combined. You need enough faith to see third boss i.e. crosses, pause the game to see how many you have. And that second boss...yeeeeeesh. I have only been able to kill it using a special weapon picked up about halfway through that level. Even then, my "fire" finger wants to cramp up after killing it. And what is the deal with some areas that look to be impossible to get to? There is one area on the second level that looks to be especially intriguing as it is isolated at the top of the screen and has a bit of ladder hanging down. There are also some straggly red lines hanging from it (vines?) but you can't seem to climb those. Am I missing something here or are these just window decoration? No way to reach some of these, just candy for eyes 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
intvnut Posted April 14, 2015 Share Posted April 14, 2015 I received my copy. Everything looks great. Thanks for putting this game out. My one critique is I wish the box was made of thicker card stock. It is so fragile. Also those notches on the flap of the box make it impossible to open without bending the top all up. Maybe this can be addressed in newer game releases. I use a thin metal object to carefully unhook the tabs at the top. Blunt edge of a small knife works, or one of the metal slot covers from the back of a PC. (Gee, why would one of those be on my desk?) 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mr_intv Posted April 14, 2015 Share Posted April 14, 2015 Just recieved my copy today. I can't wait to try it out later tonite! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eric7100 Posted April 14, 2015 Share Posted April 14, 2015 I received my two copies of Princess Quest today, along with my two copies of Flapee Bird. They were all shipped in one box. This is different from Sydney Hunter and Space Raid, which were shipped separately. I like this shipping method better. The game boxes look great, by the way. Especially Princess Quest. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kiwi Posted April 15, 2015 Share Posted April 15, 2015 You need enough faith to see third boss i.e. crosses, pause the game to see how many you have. Ahh... I think this is why I didn't get to the boss to spawn while I was wearing golden armor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
