Jamcat Reloaded Posted September 7, 2018 Share Posted September 7, 2018 Popeye has been changed to BATMAN! It's Batman versus The Penguin! And Batgirl throws out bats for Batman to catch. That was a fun sprite to animate with 8-bit booby giggle. Batman.BIN 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flojomojo Posted September 7, 2018 Share Posted September 7, 2018 LOL it makes just as much sense as Sunsoft's NES Batman! Good job. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Cafeman Posted September 7, 2018 Share Posted September 7, 2018 Cool graphical hack. Although for some reason I'm bothered that Penguin can beat up Batman in the same manner Brutus can initially beat up Popeye! I didn't play the bin , has the music been changed to Batman music? If not , I wonder how hard to change it to Adam West Batman theme? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doctorclu Posted September 7, 2018 Share Posted September 7, 2018 My suggestion: Bane instead of the Penguin. Otherwise, pretty cool. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Cafeman Posted September 7, 2018 Share Posted September 7, 2018 My suggestion: Bane instead of the Penguin. Otherwise, pretty cool. Hate to lose that nice Penguin art, maybe change the enemy each screen! "Batman has been poisoned and is weaker than normal! Punch cans of Antidote to restore to full strength" or something like that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jamcat Reloaded Posted September 8, 2018 Author Share Posted September 8, 2018 Nope, music has not been changed. Don't have those kind of skills. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jamcat Reloaded Posted September 8, 2018 Author Share Posted September 8, 2018 Here is a revision that uses the background graphics from KevinMos3's Popeye hack. But only the first 2 screens are changed since the original ROM is 8k, and not 32k like KevinMos3's hack. Batman2.BIN 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jamcat Reloaded Posted September 8, 2018 Author Share Posted September 8, 2018 The Penguin was used because the character is a better fit for the water / dock theme of the environment. Bane, Riddler, Catwoman, and the Joker really wouldn't fit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Cafeman Posted September 8, 2018 Share Posted September 8, 2018 Here is a revision that uses the background graphics from KevinMos3's Popeye hack. I really dig this project! I was not aware of KevinMos3's 32k Popeye hack, need to locate that. It shouldn't be too hard to swap out the music , if you could locate it in memory. How much memory is free in the 8k Popeye?

Greenfuzz Posted September 11, 2018 Share Posted September 11, 2018 This doesnt work on the portable Atari. Any ideas? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doctorclu Posted April 1, 2019 Share Posted April 1, 2019 There is a Popeye hack that works on the AFP... try this ... http://atariage.com/forums/topic/260650-is-it-possible-to-put-a-playfield-in-popeye-together-with-hackomatic-3/page-2?do=findComment&comment=3677908 If that works, then the Batman sprite hacks can be done with that one.

RT12 Productions Posted November 5, 2019 Share Posted November 5, 2019 How about making it into a BATMAN & ROBIN game (with a rotating villain for each level). Batman could be depicted in blue, while Robin shows up (in this game) in red. As for the rotating villains: Purple may be used for Joker, gray for Penguin, green for Riddler, a darker bluish-purple for Catwoman, ... . Try to have the Neal Hefti-composed theme programmed for inclusion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
