Thinking of packing in a simple 5 piece diorama with the Gemintronic release of Dragon Chalice. Basically, 3 grassy platforms, a Draggin' and the Chalice :) Only for adult children!

I bought an MP3 device that you could put into a cassette tape player and actually play. But, it remains unopened because the PSP and .WAV files worked too well :)

Posted a demo video of a work in progress Zorldo type scrolling. Vertical scrolling just moves the playfield data starting point. Horizontal scrolling is completely fake and uses sprites :p

I think I posted a 4k game I made as a SuperCharger compatible .WAV on another forum. Used a PSP since it could play back .WAV files. Could never figure out how to use more features as batari BASIC had, like, one demo that was getting incompatible (with bB) even back then.

Without the context - exposure to the Fist of the North Star series - big sprites is all it had going for me. But, it was cheap.. maybe a freebie with a mail in coupon. A few other kids had it and it was played :)

Somebody had bought a used Genesis that smelled a certain way. So, I posted this:

Fun fact: I made those lighting zaps as a 3D model and animated them rotating around. Fun, but.. involved :)

Oooooh.. how things have changed. Bork!

Hoboy. For the longest time I assumed Petsasjim1 was a bot trying to farm views with automated clips of ROMz. But, after exchanging comments on some videos of my games, he's actually just very excited (and nice!)

Yeah. 8 Bit Milli had his own techniques for packaging. Focusing on value over trying to imitate retail boxes. I'm just dumb enough to try getting close to big brand boxes while keeping costs homebrew :) If y'all have suggestions for this version let me know. I still haven't programmed all the boards :)

Since my previous publishing partner is winding down 2600 releases I thought a new Gemintronic product was in order. Got a pic of the box, cart and manual here. Thinking of more tchotchkes to include. Got more boxes and carts to make as well :) For those who don't know Dragon Chalice is my top down action / adventure with co-op, couch compliance and a password save. All in PAL60 and NTSC depending on what you choose when powering up!

I had the bright idea of writing down the coordinates where I find items including the Chalice. But, yet to execute on it :p Pretty sure I made it so when you win it bumps you up to a new overworld. So, I've been resetting the game when I win to make sure the item locations are the same. To be clear when you VERY first enter a room the two numbers in yellow are your current coordinates in the kingdom. P.S. Yes, I made the game. But, I forgot where everything is as it's been awhile and lost my testing notes :)

From KRAZ:

This guy is amazing. Very informative and fun. Asked me follow up questions too!

From what KRAZ Productions told me it's based on the high score. But, your question plus re-reading the rules I'm not sure. I'll ask 'em myself. My theoretical strategy for a higher score would be see which enemies give the most points and save up the kill shot for them. All enemies are tied to the same HP pool so this might work..
