AlamoAtari Posted October 30, 2016 Report Share Posted October 30, 2016 I saw this today, it's called the slocum tracker. You can make your own soundtrack and sounds without having to get into assembly language to much. A great little tool for homebrew or just messing around with.

Justin Posted October 30, 2016 Report Share Posted October 30, 2016 I've always been really impressed with Paul Slocum. I think he's a literal genius. I wrote a blog entry on him a number of years ago (which I need to find), My blog entry linked to an article The Austin Chronicle had written about Paul Slocum for SXSW. It's a bit dated, but still a great read if you're curious about an awesome person who pushed the 2600 to the max in the most interesting ways: From The Austin Chronicle: Paul Slocum Modding the game http://www.austinchronicle.com/screens/2007-03-02/451623/ AlamoAtari, DeLorean, MaximumRD and 3 others 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlamoAtari Posted October 30, 2016 Author Report Share Posted October 30, 2016 I think it's awesome that Paul made it available to other people. I am going to mess with this one for a bit. It might be cool if I could make some hacks for myself, maybe good enough to share with you guys here.

Ballblaɀer Posted October 31, 2016 Report Share Posted October 31, 2016 Paul composed the title theme for Thrust+ -- it's the pinnacle of musical achievement on a 2600 cart, if you ask me. To hear sounds like these coming from a VCS... it rendered me speechless the first time I fired up the game!
