Re: In the making: Arukanuido – an Arkanoid clone
You're really good at what you do and shows what Vic 20 is capable of. This game almost have a non Vic 20 feeling to it, it's simply too smooth. I like the graphic design as well. Vic 20 has many great shooters but no awesome break out, this seems to fix that.

Re: (SWE) Vic 20 2015
"Folkdatorn", det var lite som när Stenmark och Björn Borg var stora där halva Sverige stannade när Stenmark skulle åka sitt andra åk. Något sådant får vi aldrig vara med om igen. Samma sak när video var något nytt och stort i Sverige, och även om Vic 20 är en pryl för ett museum idag så ä...

(SWE) Vic 20 2015
Tänk er att man går ut på Sergels torg i Stockholm och så har man med sig en bunt med begagnade Vic 20 som står på ett bord. - HÄR VAR DET FOLKDATORN VIC 20, bara 300 Kr *kund kommer fram* - Aha, folkdatorn? Ingår Viaplay i priset? Vad är det för uppkoppling? 4G? Och var är pekskärmen? Jag lägger ti...

Re: In the making: Arukanuido – an Arkanoid clone
You can even afford 16k if you want.
Great job, feels lightyears smother then any breakout game i have played on Vic 20. Nice graphics too. At last, Arkanoid on Vic 20.

Re: Could the Vectrex be reborn?
What i said was For me the overlays is vital. That's why i use an emulator to play Vectrex. I personally think that the games look terrible without the overlays, besides missing what should be there. That's why i wanted to show the difference posting screenshots. If anyone want to play Vectrex witho...

Re: Pac Man 2600
Perhaps a PAL version is created too? The game isn't 100% finished yet.

Re: Could the Vectrex be reborn?
To the left - Hyperchase without overlay To the right - Hyperchase with it's overlay I'll gladly pass to play the left version because it's nothing left of what's Hyperchase for me. http://2.t.imgbox.com/5FowUmjO.jpg Vectrex was not alone of using colored overlays. Same thing was used by both Atari ...

Re: Pac Man 2600
Agreed.
The guy who made this version of Pac Man did a great job. It looks good, plays smooth and sounds great. He even manage to get it real fun to play too.

Re: Pac Man 2600
It has been many attempts to make a great Pac Man on Atari 2600 but this seems to be the best so far. I tested it on Stella and it has smooth nice control too.

Pac Man 2600
Pac Man for Atari 2600 was a disaster when released in 1982, yet it was the most sold title for the system. Flickering ghost was just the beginning of a real bad game that certanly contributed to the video game crash in 1983. It could have been done a lot better, take a look at this homebrew https:/...

Re: Could the Vectrex be reborn?
Then you had the artwork on the arcade machine. That's why overlays is used for many MAME games too. I owned a Vectrex in the 80's and i never forget the glowing blue Minestorm containing a grid or the green hyperchase two colored ovelay. http://2.t.imgbox.com/hIhJZTPx.jpg http://4.t.imgbox.com/OQc5...

Re: Could the Vectrex be reborn?
It's not only the colours but the artwork as well that makes the plastic overlays so vital for me. Vectrex was designed to use overlays for a good reason, to recreate the arcade feeling. Vectrex was never thought of to be used without the overlays. A good thing is that overlays can be made by anyone...

Re: Could the Vectrex be reborn?
I think that Vectrex is THE console to emulate these days. Why? Because of the plastic overlays. Without them it's not much left. Ovelays is easy to emulate in an emulator. It's so sad to see homebrews or even new commercial games sold without the nessessary plastic overlay. All that is left is whit...

Yes, I have played most of my old games on the emulators. I think the emulators are way cool, and I love being ab...
