+batari Posted September 1, 2005 Share Posted September 1, 2005 I thought I'd share my WIP to add new levels to Coleco's DK. It's unfinished, just the ramp screen and it's glitchy and not yet playable, and may never be if I'm the only one who ever works on this. So I'll post source in case someone else wants to see what they can do with it. dkh.zip 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sandmountainslim Posted September 3, 2005 Share Posted September 3, 2005 Way to go Bats! Donkey Kong is one game that has been needing this treatment for a loooong time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sandmountainslim Posted May 23, 2009 Share Posted May 23, 2009 THIS was a great idea and was lookin' very promising. HOWZABOUTIT Bats??? I have waited nigh 4 years between my posts on this. How 'bout putting her together and have the Ultimate DK? Wp Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HFK Posted May 24, 2009 Share Posted May 24, 2009 Really surprised nobody has tackled this one yet, even just a better port. Donkey Kong was a very popular game and as a kid I played the heck out of the 2600 version but was always jealous of the Colecovision version. Wish I could help.

TrekMD Posted May 24, 2009 Share Posted May 24, 2009 Nice to see someone improving DK for the 2600. Looking forward to more... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corby Posted May 24, 2009 Share Posted May 24, 2009 Take this one that I hacked, and added some of the other members hacks together. this might generate some interest. dk_arcade_final.bin Corby 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atari Dogs Posted May 24, 2009 Share Posted May 24, 2009 With all the talented people here, I am amazed this was not done before. The only game that may have deserved an improvement more than Donkey Kong was Pac-Man. Pac-Man Arcade is fantastic. Here is hope that DK will be completed.

CDS Games Posted September 20, 2013 Share Posted September 20, 2013 Still any interest in this? If we can get a ramps > elevators conversion playable, here's the 2nd piece of the puzzle: the rivets level (almost) hacked into the cement factory/conveyor level. It's playable, but there are some bugs and I've turned obstacle collisions off temporarily. dkcementlevel3.bin Major issues still outstanding: 1) You can wander off the screen. I wrote a routine to address this but it didn't work. 2) You can walk across the center gap. One way I can think of to deal with this is to somehow change the 3rd tub from the top (which isn't supposed to move anyway) to a stationary one that sits still above the furnace. But I couldn't make that work. Not to take anything away from the fantastic DK projects out there...I just like the idea of good ol' classic Coleco 2600 DK with 4 levels. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
