    Default DK Vector Update

    Almost finished with the Donkey Kong Vector Green.

    Latest version:


    The only thing left to do is change the level 2 background color to green. Once I change that this will be finished and it will only take a few minutes to make the black and white version.

    Truly awesome. If this becomes available in cart form I will be first in line to buy one.

    I am having carts made of all of my new hacks. If I have extra carts made for other people? Depends on the response.

    The problem is that if I limit the number of carts to 20 or less,(which is alot easier for me to deal with), then I get e-mails saying that I am trying to make an elitist collectible. If I make more copies to make sure anyone who wants it can get it(DPXmas went from 20 to 40), then I get e-mails accusing me of hurting the collectability??? and profiteering??

    No offense, but some of you guys are a little unbalanced .

    Anyway, I do this for fun, charge less then $15 for the carts and make as many copies as I think is necesarry. When I finish the DK Vector hack, whether I offer it on cart or not I will make sure you (chadtower) can get a copy on cartridge.

    Here is a WIP Screenshot of the Black and White Version:

    Cool, I appreciate the offer! I'll definitely be in on those others. If I had the time I'd be right in where you are, making hacks and building the skills to design my own game. I just don't have the time (kids, etc) so I'm living vicariously through you and the others who are lucky enough to be making these works. Don't let the idiots dissuade you! No matter what a person does, if it's cool and productive, there will ALWAYS be naysayers and people trying to bring you down to their level. These people just don't want to see someone else succeed. I see it way too often. Do what you do, keep it up, these hacks look awesome and I'm right behind you every time.

    You rock man! Any thoughts on the cart labels for this yet?

    So how many homebrews like this do you guys have and how often you play them?

    No ideas on labels. If you want to try, the field is wide open.

    The hacks that I have in cart form:

    Alien Ants
    Ant Attack
    Shark
    DPXmas
    Death Race

    I have too many homebrew carts to list but some of the best are on Colecovision:

    Ms Space Fury
    Space Invaders Collection

    My goal is to have every hack on my website made into cartridge.

    I use Paintshop Pro myself. Easier then Photoshop in many cases.
