If you are interested in poking around the X68000Z you can apply for a free beta test Hacker's Edition Unit. HACKER'S EDITION recruitment (zuiki.co.jp) They will be selecting some of the applicant later in a few weeks. A lot of you are talented developers that may like this! 😄

Very cool @masteries, did you integrate a USB cable for +5V power into the design? 😄 That is the handy revision.

Very cool. 😄 I am the same way, I never got a datasette drive with my A8 back to the time. I have a few 1050 Drives, but never did get a datasette drive. I will have to try and get one someday. 😄

Very cool Peter! 😄 This should help some authors get their stories on the A8. 🙂

Hey Hey! Happy to see you here!

Added Flashback 2

This will be the great buy for someone wanting a 5200. 🙂 Excellent stuff as usual Scott. 😄

Yes Peter has a lot of cool things going on here. 😄

Very great work! I will want to check this out. 🙂 I would love to get one of your good controllers for this too when I can afford one. Really cool to see you pushing the STe. I will never be able to get a Falcon now 😢, so glad the STe can still play with the big brothers. 😄

Very cool! 😄 I was jealous of any kids with handhelds back in the day that were more advanced than a Calculator. 😄 I remember the Boy's Life magazin that had an article about all the new handhelds, and the Lynx looked so great. 🙂 Years later, I got one, but then the guy wanted to buy it back, after a week or so. I was nice and let him have it back. 😛 Cool to see it in the TV show.

Really great progress Peter! 🙂 Smooth graphics all around! Ace coding! The new gameplay with the moving platform should add a good challenge. 😄

Yes, I suppose we will find out in October. 😄 Would be ideal to be a PC for sure. Either way if it is open I am sure people would enjoy to play with it, not so much for me, but hope other companies are watching. 😉

Yes I am not sure either. I mailed them a few weeks ago too, but no response either. Back on topic, it would be neat if the X68000Z would have an open platform for development. Would be cool to see more coders on more 68000 based machines. 😄

I remember actually seeing something like this in development, but I think there was some complication. I imagine this could be done easy enough with an X86 compatible CPU and an FPGA to emulate the 3DFX chipset though. I imagine that is something that will be happening soon enough though. 😄 Would be fun if Microsoft themselves bankrolled that, and it came installed with a legit Win9x build. We need a readily available TOS system too. The Firebee is great, but who can get one? 😢 Some company with lots of money needs to get on either developing it further or making a new one. Jeff Bezos loves the ST line. He needs to put his money where his mouth is. 😛

I am not a super fan of Japanese PCs (they are not Atari 😄) but thought this was the cool announcement, given it is some love to retro PCs. A Mini Sharp X68000. Looks like it'll include a keyboard and mouse as well. No concrete details until October 8th, but pretty neat, had some good arcade ports. Now someone needs to give the Falcon this kind of treatment, so I can actually get one. 😛

Much nicer to look at, than the game itself. 😄

This looks great Peter! Smooth scrolling and a nicely animated character. Can't wait to see further gameplay.

Very cool story about the creation of the game. You can find inspiration in anything. 😄 You guys always come up with the creative games. The manual, comic, box, etc. They look great! Makes me hungry for ice cream. 😄 Looks like another hit you guys put together.

Very fun! I remember the preview video for this one! Ice Cream Ike, what a great way to beat the heat in the summer with some ice cream fun! 😄 Great work guys! I hope this sells like ice cream!

Random New stuff.

Sorry Peter, I am not sure I understand 100% your requirement my brain does not work as well. 😄 Do you want the one that runs on the A8 or on modern PC? If the modern editor, this one I saw is kind of the replacement to PlayerPal editor. https://bocianu.gitlab.io/spred/ If on the A8 itself I have the old one on a disk somewhere, but no way to rip the disk. 😄

Thank you my friends glad you like the game. 🙂 I wish you all the best too.

Thanks my friend. 🙂There will not be any improvement, but I am hanging in there.

Thank you so much for the kind words. It was a lot of fun to make, both the game and physical production. 🙂 A bummer my poor health took the wind out if my sails, but I am happy people seem to be enjoying it. :D

If you are a collector of individually numbered games, @Video 61 has the very last numbered copy of Carrot Kingdom™! Factory sealed, numbered, etc. very good. 😉 If you are interested, hit him up. 🙂 Huge thanks to him for distributing these copies for me after my health took a nose dive.
