intvdave Posted May 18, 2023 Share Posted May 18, 2023 Someone was trying to get Jetsons to work in emulation and asked how to get past the prompts. I loaded up the game to try it out and forgot that the game play is all done with the controller. What a mistake not including this with my Controller Collection of ECS games So, the work was started, and finished, to allow input from the controllers. But, that was not good enough. The game reminded me of World Series Baseball, where it just played slow which took away from the fun. FIXED! Now we have a Super Pro version Jetsons is actually a fun game with the tweaks I have done. Is this enough? Nope. The game has 384 words (listed below) but I wanted to add more. Why not add Video Game terms? My kid wants to make it really hard by adding chemistry words...might take the fun out of it. The game will be made available soon. I am curious if anyone has interest in adding more words.

I am looking for contributor to adding words I just updated the game to support an additional level of words. It is to easy to add them! If anyone wants to contribute, I need the list in the format below. Word 1 and 2 are synonyms, 3 and 4 are antonyms, 5 and 6 are synonyms, ect... The total count of words is 128 per vocabulary level. I plan on making an Intellivision level WORD1 WORD2 WORD3 WORD4 ..... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is why I released my ECS updates as one package for the price of one game. In my opinion only, if any ECS game deserved to be released CIB it would be my update to World Series Baseball. This game was designed to be a simulator. The updated version plays more as a fun game. Scooby Doo has been updated to be more fun..not sure how well I succeeded. Mind Strike, and Super NFL Football updates are just support for the controller. Jetsons may fall more inline with WSBaseball. I do think the updates make the game more fun. I just created a vocabulary set which uses game titles which would make it more entertaining. So... I may have convinced myself that Jetsons and WSBaseball deserve a CIB release if people want it. Maybe a cart that has Jetsons and Scooby? HHmmm..... 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CaptainBreakout Posted May 20, 2023 Share Posted May 20, 2023 I have an Intellivision II and the LTO flashcart. Can I ask... Will your version of this game work with standard controllers on this setup? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will your version of this game work with standard controllers on this setup? You still need the ECS. Just no keyboard. You may ask, why do this then? Emulators do not need an ECS. This is another reason I did not care to release them on cart. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The multi-game ROM is 100% done and ready for game boards. The only issue? Getting it released. If Rev was to put it on his list of games he is going to release, it may not be available until 2050.

+the1hatman Posted May 20, 2023 Share Posted May 20, 2023 Not only would I want to buy a milti-cart version of Super Pro ESC games, I really want an updated Melody Blaster CIB as well! Even if you just do another board release, I'm sure Steve or I can come up with a nice box kit to flesh it out 👍 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The game just would not be fun to play. Same for Bits & Bytes. I thought this was going to be the issue with Jetson until I played it a few days ago.
