timdu Posted October 25, 2017 Share Posted October 25, 2017 So I am happy to announce that I was on part of the team that Michael Thomasson of GOOD DEAL GAMES http://www.gooddealgames.com/ assembled to release and sell KC's ESCAPE for the Odyssey2! The game was sold at the Portland Retro Gaming Exposition this past weekend. This time I worked on making of the cartridges. I am proud to be part of the team that Michael put together. So how did it go? According to Michael, who is recovering from his return of a jam-packed weekend... "We sold them [ all thirty ] that we brought. It was a great success. Not a single kid under the age of ten didn’t stop and play it. Ed Averett was very pleased with everything." 30 games were sold at the show. $65 each. So 20 remain and will be on sale online at the Good Deal Games web site by the end of the month. I am working with Michael and we will likely make 50 more cartridges in November or December available for a total run of 100 cartridges of this game. If you would like one of the 20 games: The price will be $65 and shipping. If you want an autographed game by Ed Averitt, the price is $80 plus shipping. ( Please note Ed Averitt did not program the game by the way ) The game was programmed by Martjin Wenting. The game sort of plays a little bit like JAWBREAKER. ENJOY!

I've got one loose duplicate baseball game you can have, but that's just a drop in the bucket. Still though, pm me a mailing address if you want it and it's yours, no charge.

timdu Posted December 4, 2017 Author Share Posted December 4, 2017 Update December 3, 2017: Here are 3 pictures from the Portland show. Michael from Good Deal Games stated that no pictures of Ed signing autographs were taken... however... There are photos of Michael with Ed at the PRGE show and a picture of Ed while some kids play KC'S ESCAPE. If you look behind Ed in the photos you can see the pen he used to autograph the box sleeves on the table in the background. According to Michael, about 70 of the 100 games have been sold. So about thirty of the 100 cartridges remain at this time. Quote Link to comment https://forums.atariage.com/topic/271384-kcs-escape/#findComment-3903673 Share on other sites More sharing options...
