I hooked a VIC20 to the projector in the living room and the kids and I have been playing Cheese and Onion for the past couple days. My 6 year old absolutely loves it! Its a very approachable platformer, especially for young children. Lots of hours of enjoyment from this one. Well done!

Suggest people congratulate or contact Misfit on Twitter, looks like he's abandoned this forum over the HASL issue.

Beamrider, this is a great loss for the community. Are you still in touch with him? If so, could you ask him if he can change his mind? Too bad futile fights and sometimes contentious behavior are preventing people from giving a precious contribution to our (almost) friendly forum.

tokra wrote:Nothing to do with VICE. You can just rip the image from the cart by using an XPander for example by saving BLK1,2,3 and 5 and then start with SYS64802. No special magic about it. Made a version for myself this way that I just crunched with exomizer and can load and run from SD.

I cannot share this version for obvious reasons, so it's really up to Misfit himself if he decides to make a digital release of this game at some point.
Thanks to @tokra for assistance. In the end I discovered the X switch on my Mosaic RAM Master was able to help me dumping both Cheese & Onion and Spaceship Minus One from the cartridges:

Code: Select all

sys57809"2000-7fff.crt",8,1
poke251,0:poke252,32:poke780,251:poke781,0:poke782,128:sys65496
sys57809"a000-bfff.crt",8,1

Just got round to buying and playing this. It's a lot like Super Meat Boy. The pseudo-widescreen borders are also a nice touch.

Looks good but the price is creeping up and they only included misfit's titles, none of the other denial home-brew of the last 10 years.

I think the price will stay high until the V5.x version has sold out:

I already have V4 and V5 (and most of the games as singles), so I won't be willing to buy at this price.
