Hey Guys,

These games may not be pretty (or even interesting) but if you have 5
minutes to waste you may find them mildly amusing.
I wrote these in my spare time. It was fun but way too time consuming.

Dan:

You have created some nice demos there!  Congratulations!  I like them!

Becky's Message is a Donky Kong clone .. although I cannot get the guy
to jump the barrels at all!

Koko's Retribution is YARS Revenge!  And I don't know anything about
YARS game.

Both game demos have nice effects and sounds!  I encourage everyone to
try them out and give Dan some feedback!

Great job Dan!  I would not call your game efforts really bad at all!

Don't run yourself down, they're really very good.

Especially like the Donkey Kong clone - nice sound effects too !

It'd be a great game if you could finish it

Keep going....

Not bad at all!  The Donkey Kong clone deserves to be finished!

Hey All,
I just played the Donkey Kong clone and really liked it. Honestly I
wish you would finish it as I really liked it. Are you planning to
make anymore Vectrex games? The other one 'Retributuon' is good to
though I wasn't sure how to play it.. Nice sound effects.

You shoud rename this thread to 'a couple of really decent Vec games'.
Hope to play more of your games in the near future. Would you consider
producing a Vec game on a cart so we could buy it? BTW, please do an
overlay if you put a game for sale on a cart! I'm sure we  would all
love a new game complete with overlay.

Regards,

Daniel.

Basic systems for a gravity distortion system allow time travel. They
are:

1. Magnetic housing units for dual microsignularities.
2. Electron injection manifold to alter mass and gravity of
microsingularities.
3. Cooling and x-ray venting system
4. Gravity sensors (VGL system)
5. Main clocks (4 cesium units)
6. Main computer units (3)

Even a small thorn causes festering.

here here, but it takes a lot of dedication and time to see these projects
through as me and many other partially completed game authors know.
