Synthpopalooza Posted February 13, 2022 Share Posted February 13, 2022 Just wanted to say ... It was an excellent crop of games this year, and it's been my pleasure to help out on so many of them! Also thanks to the ZPH people for putting it all together. Also, thanks to Muddy and Darryl for the kind words. Making music really makes me happy. 4 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mika15 Posted February 13, 2022 Share Posted February 13, 2022 Congrats to all the nominees and winners, but more importantly thanks for the great show! I was actually sad that it was over so quick, you need an after dark with additional commentary and result analysis ? 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+littaum Posted February 13, 2022 Share Posted February 13, 2022 Fantastic and well put out show, @ZeroPage Homebrew. The nomination reels were amazing and it was a major bureaucratic feat being able to get so many people across the globe online for chats. You do the homebrew scene proud! 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think for many of us a real honest to goodness Robotron was something we never thought we would see on the 2600 and that magic powered RobotWar to victory in all three categories. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dan Iacovelli Posted February 13, 2022 Share Posted February 13, 2022 again good show great games I almost didn't have to do voting for Harmony games until I played kung fu combat 2 and saw the only scoring was in the obstacles and I had remove that from list of games which also meant had to change orignal to voting as well but had to do 3 choices instead of the orignal 2. anyways heres link to polls (I put all in one thread instead of splitting it up like you do for Homebrew Awards) https://atariage.com/forums/topic/331266-harmony-games-voting-thread-graphics-and-best-orignal/ I'll post the link on my facebook group for AVC Online and the website as well (harmony games page) 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can we have a dedicated Champ Games catergory next year so other games can have a chance in the port catergory? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+splendidnut Posted August 31, 2022 Share Posted August 31, 2022 I think @chavert was asking about a "hacks" category being reintroduced in the 5th Annual Awards. Have there been any stellar / profound hacks done on games in the past year? From my point of view, that would be the driving force of it being re-added back into the awards show. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+splendidnut Posted August 31, 2022 Share Posted August 31, 2022 Also, @Albert : why is this forum located under Atari 7800 category? Shouldn't this be in Atari General? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
