Seeing the screenshot above and the write-up in the article, "Ranking The Upcoming PRGE 9 Games from My Least Anticipated to Most", evidently a 'small' update to Attack of the 7800 PETSCII Robots was missed:

 

 

After reviewing the aforementioned link, if it doesn't change your anticipation level, certainly it should change your perspective.  

 

Even since that update, more was revealed..."the new incredible POKEY soundtrack by Noelle Aman".  Soundtrack is apropos, as the game contains several different POKEY melodies.

   

I have to concur with this comment: "Based on the video posted to facebook, the screenshots above do not really do it justice", and another: "I just watched the video, wow, visually and audibly fantastic. Great job guys!", along with the comments of others who have witnessed a more recent version of this game.

It looks pretty darn good. I have to admit I know a lot about every other game on the list, but this one has flown under my radar. Like I said in the piece, this could be the sleeper hit of the pack. It looks crazy ambitious. I can't wait to play it. Mike and Matt do some great friggin work.

Thanks! Mike must take all the major credit for the color version - what he has been able to achieve here is amazing!! Creating a new cart format with Fred (this will open a few more doors gfx wise), full 160b visuals, incorporating an existing RMT pokey engine and SNES controller support (into 7800basic) are just the start. Also David created a very transferrable core 6502 source with made the initial work quite easy.
