RickR Posted November 2, 2017 Report Share Posted November 2, 2017 (edited) Give Me My Pancake! by Mr. Atari http://www.mr-atari.com/pancake/ This one looks really cool. It's got the look and feel of a Game-n-Watch, which is a really neat idea. Plus, the ROM is available to try for free. And you can get a custom message in the hard version for just a few bucks more! And finally...only about $18 shipped to the US! Oh! And there is a PDF of the box that you can print yourself. Unbelievable! I ordered one. The game is pretty simple, but it's fun and unique, and I think we all should support such fairly priced efforts.

Justin Posted November 2, 2017 Report Share Posted November 2, 2017 I love when guys in the community create stuff like this. Translating the Game-n-Watch feel to the 2600 is a novel idea. I'll have to check this out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RickR Posted November 2, 2017 Author Report Share Posted November 2, 2017 It's the same author as "Defend Your Castle": http://forums.atari.io/index.php/topic/3352-atari-2600-defend-your-castle/ I can attest that game came quickly and was fun to put together. No issue at all here ordering another game from Simon. Arenafoot 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clint Thompson Posted November 2, 2017 Report Share Posted November 2, 2017 Amazing price! I'm guessing he makes about $5-$6 each cart but it certainly makes wanting to get homebrews of this nature for more attractive and is more than fair.

DegasElite Posted November 4, 2017 Report Share Posted November 4, 2017 Excellent graphics, for an A2600 game. I like the premise. Also, you are right, Clint. It is an attractive game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RickR Posted November 17, 2017 Author Report Share Posted November 17, 2017 It came! That didn't take long. All the way from Netherlands. This is what comes in the bag: I chose a Combat with a bad label (and no end label) as the shell donor: While I have the cart taken apart, I clean everything up with alcohol and a cotton ball: A quick test after assembly (and before I put the stickers on): And finally, I put the stickers on using a Yars' Revenge to make sure I orient them correctly: Starbuck66, nosweargamer, Arenafoot and 1 other 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
