It unfortunately hasn't been updated in about a year but you can find all the 2600 homebrew released in 2022 and 2023 on the lists I maintain on the AtariAge forums. - James Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+ZeroPage Homebrew Posted November 16 Author Share Posted November 16 Just finished a four hour stream playing Mr. Run and Jump (2600) that you can watch below. Here are my thoughts: PROS: - An incredibly challenging platformer. It took me just under four hours to finish the game and the levels got exponentially harder! - Good ramp up of difficulty, the first level is fairly easy so it lulled me into a false sense of comfort. From there is just got harder until the last level which was near torturous! (in a good way) - Clever level design that will test even the best of players. CONS: - No flicker management was used in the game so every enemy shares the 2nd player character. If there are 5 enemies/dangers/ladders on the screen, they're all flashing at 12Hz. - Unstable picture between screens. If you're playing this cart on a Atari 2600 (classic hardware) you will probably get screen dropouts on a modern TV. It will probably be fine on a CRT but to play it on a modern screen you will probably need an upscaler like a RetroTINK that will smooth over the picture loss bumps Overall I would recommend it to fans of platformers as you can overlook the flicker because the gameplay is old school hard. Luckily you get infinite lives with a score countdown to tell you how well you did. The countdown goes to zero at about 3 hours in, so if you can get more than zero points on your first go around I would say you're an expert player. WARNING: FULL PLAYTHROUGH, EXTREME SPOILERS! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
