Atari_JaguarVCS Posted August 14, 2023 Share Posted August 14, 2023 (edited) The demo for the up and coming VCS game Super Star Shooter 16 is now available on the Atari VCS Store. There's also a super cool video that's been put out from Kraz Productions. This thing screams 90's all over it to me and i absolutely love it 🙂 Edited August 14, 2023 by justclaws edited title for consistency 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Atari_JaguarVCS Posted August 14, 2023 Author Share Posted August 14, 2023 I've downloaded the demo but not yet tried it but it does indeed look fun. Its had a lot of work put in to it to get it working with the spinner on the classic controller 🙂 I think the classic will be the only way to play this game for me. Respect to the developer for giving us a demo! I don't recall any other demos being available on the Atari VCS store other than Guntech, but i think that demo has been removed.

Mockduck Posted August 14, 2023 Share Posted August 14, 2023 Neat, the second time we've had a free demo in the Store, first being Unsung Warriors. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atari_JaguarVCS Posted August 14, 2023 Author Share Posted August 14, 2023 I forgot about Unsung Warriors. So that and Guntech had a demo. I'll need to check the store and see if the Guntech demo is actually still available though now I'm curious, i don't remember seeing it last time i looked so i think it might have been pulled from the store.

It’s nice to have another game that utilizes the spinner. I feel like I’m playing an “Atari” whenever I can use the classic controller. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same here, i really appreciate the spinner support it often separates the VCS version apart from the other platforms and adds an extra layer of challenge and fun to games. If I'm correct this game is also going to Steam but there's a few features and stuff that separate the Atari VCS 800 version apart like the spinner support and there's seemingly a few other bits and pieces being put into the game that are exclusive and unique to the VCS version but I'm not quite sure what those are yet. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atari_JaguarVCS Posted August 14, 2023 Author Share Posted August 14, 2023 If anyone runs into an issue when they launch the demo and have a screen resolution problem just back out of the demo and go into system, storage, other saved data/game saves and delete the save file for Super Star Shooter 16 Demo Build, once deleted back out and try launching the demo again and it should be back to normal. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+SabertoothRetro Posted August 15, 2023 Share Posted August 15, 2023 A quick gameplay only video of the demo using the Classic. The twist control is very well implemented. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atari_JaguarVCS Posted August 15, 2023 Author Share Posted August 15, 2023 Its amazing how the twist functionality can change the full the gameplay. I played the demo with and without the classic controller and i prefer it with the classic, its just so much more fun that way. This is one of my most wanted games for the Atari VCS now its just so fun. I hope other developers find even more ways to implement the spinner in the future. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mockduck Posted October 11, 2023 Share Posted October 11, 2023 My son absolutely loves this game (he's 12) and tore through the levels in recent days into the mid-20's. Very cool game! I am not as good at it, but liking it a lot. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
