    Default Who wants TRONMAN?

    I am going to make some extra carts of TRONMAN to offer to those people who want a copy. Right now 20 copies are being made with 10 of those going to people who were involved with the hack in one way or another. So 10 copies are up for grabs. There may be more carts made in the future but no guarantee. And yes, When you plug the cartridge into an Atari 2600 the cartridge lights up with the TRON blue glow.





    For people who don't know:

    TRONMAN is a hack of Fast Eddie that was made as a parody of Jay Maynard who is the guy pictured on the cartridge. He made his own TRON costume and became know as the TRON GUY and has appeared in print and Televison interviews. Check out his website:
    http://tronguy.net/
    The costume is kinda cool but Jay became known more for how he looked in the suit:

    Hey Jay!! That's just wrong.... onder:
    You can get more information on the game and download a playable BIN file here:
    http://home.bellsouth.net/p/s/community.dl...geid=154950&ck=

    The game will come with:
    Glowing TRONMAN Cartridge
    Instruction Book
    Box with printed front and back.

    Right now the whole package is going to be $25 with carts being ready to go by the end of August. That price is pretty much set but may change by a dollar or so up or down(down doubtful ). Shipping will be by USPS Priority Mail with Delivery Confirmation, $4.75 I believe. PAYPAL ONLY. Worldwide shipping is an additional $2.

    Right now I want anyone wanting to get a copy of TRONMAN to PM a message to me thru Digital Press. It will still be a few weeks before payment is required. I have had too many request for TRONMAN over the last 6 months to keep track so it will be on a first come first serve basis. I will reply to your message if you get a copy reserved or if you were too late. Like I mentioned before, More may be made but no guarantee.

    The cartridge is being offered at a few dollars over the cost of actually making the package. The extra $2 per the 10 copies($20) is going toward shipping materials and misc cost.

    Joe: If this violates the new DP rules just delete it.

    No Jay Maynards were harmed in any way in the production of this cartridge. Jay is aware of the TRONMAN project and has given his full approval for using his likeness.

    This is probably more appropriate in the Buying and Selling forum.

    How do you kill the purple robot at the top? I remeber other tron games you threw a disc at him but I see no way of doing so in this game.

    Each new sector features a different Snack. There are a total of ten(10) snacks on each level and they will appear two(2) at a time. TRONMAN must grab as many snacks as possible. After he's snagged nine(9) snacks, a security-disc appears directly above the MCP on the top level. TRONMAN must jump the MCP and grab the disc.

    Grabbing the tenth snack is optional, but worth ninety(90) extra points. After TRONMAN gets the security-disc, it's on to the next sector and another Food Item to snack on.

    The MCP gets smaller with snack that is collected.

    You can download the BIN file and try it for yourself.
