Hi there,
A few weeks I decided to write a 2600 game (when I discovered that a
convenient
assembler and emulator was available).
Why am I doing it? - not quite sure yet, but it is the most fun I have had
programming for quite a while. Even the easy things are are a challenge.
What am I doing? - I have quite a few games I want to write (none very
original
so far, but hopefully I will have an idea for an original game before I
am finished this strange programming adventure).
I have just begun a 'space laser' / 'space beam/ type of game (it seemed
like
an easy first 2600 project, 'in tune' with the capabilities of the 2600).
I also have an idea to do a space zap type game, and maybe some sort of
silly platformer, a sokoban type game, and just for a bit of fun, a linux
shell
mockup for display at work, and that original one I hope will come out of my
brain.
But enough about me, now for some questions.
Which is the most accurate emulator available? Currently I am doing most of
my
testing with Stella running under Windows 2000.
Which is the best way to run the program on a real 2600? I am planning to
get one of Chad Schell's Cuttle Carts (if you are reading this Chad, I am in
the
(hopefully) final stages of getting the paypal confirmed). It seems like a
really
good way to this.
Regards,
Andrew
