Anyone here know if this game is likely to be put to cartridge via RGCD?
Such a great little game, definately wothy enough of winning the 16k comp! I would love to see it put in a real box Smile

Yes, it is more than likely to happen. I have given permission for the game to be released on to a 64KB Cartridge, the same goes with Sub Hunter. The jump mechanics need to be fixed before the game gets a special release. HeavyStylus and I know the right man for that job. Wink

This is rather uncanny! Richard and I were discussing this the other day - or perhaps even the same day as this post! We want to put together a cartridge (with Psytronik's blessing) of Sub Hunter on a 64KB cart - and to fill the space we are including an improved build of Woolly Jumper as a bonus Smile

So yes, it will happen, and I guess within the next couple of months.

That would be awesome. TNT - do you have any other games that were published? I am a modern C64 game collector (anything from Pystronik etc) I collect...TNT - I know you have programmed many games in the past - why not publish a compilation disk full of your games? I would be happy to illustrate for you - so no worries about inlays etc..

Let me see ... Ah yes, there were quite a few games of mine which got published. I'll start from the oldest - the newest.

- Balloonacy (Cronosoft). I actually did do an updated tape master of that game, after fixing a bug, but that one never was used, but I was too late anyhow.
- Balloonacy 2 (Cronosoft). This one used the wrong tape master as well. I think I sent too many. Same as above, I was too late to update the tape master Wink

- Grid Zone (Cronosoft)
- Grid Zone Remix (Cronosoft) - Quite epic at its time, but things got better as years passed.

- Sub Hunter (Psytronik) - Probably one of my best ever titles to have hit the C64.
- Sheepoid (Psytronik) - An amusing tribute to Yak, and Laser Zone Wink

All of the games are available to download and try out on my web site Wink

I have bought Balloonacy a long time ago and it never arrived. I think I emailed them at the time but never got a response to this day. I remember well because I was looking forward to playing it. But seriously though - why not package up a compilation of those other games and sell them with some sexy packaging? Sure they are free but so are many others that can be downloaded for free - It's Magic 2 for example from Protovision. There are so many people just like myself who buy this type of thing - the packaging with a chunky manual is what it is all about.
