My latest Atari 2600 homebrew Muncher is ready for release! This is the limited edition, 40 numbered copies are available, NTSC only.
Muncher is an original game where you play as an astronaut who crashed on an alien planet. You must journey across the surface to eat all the food that splattered all over during the crash. There are aliens who chase and try to eat you as you try to hold on to dear life. There are 9 levels where the alien(s) behave differently.
Here are threads about the game:

Note that the latest ROM posted in the thread is not the final, and this release differs slightly from it. There is no manual included with the cartridge, but the controls are as you would expect. The game uses a joystick controller. The button can be held to get a temporary boost, that is replenished by eating more food while going normal speed. The Color/Black and White switch turns off the sound effect of eating food if you prefer. There is also a pause after loosing a life or beating a level before it lets you resume the game.
Cartridges are $30 USD, shipping is $6 to the US, $20 to canada, and $24 to anywhere else. Sorry for the ridiculous out of country prices, I have no control over that. These are ready to ship now! Label artwork done by AtariAge user Necron99
