Oh &%$@! Either the advance warning satellites are %&$#!@ again or there’s a giant %©#&$ space octopus heading straight for earth! Congressional budget cuts have reduced NASA to launching model rockets in the park but never fear, the private sector is here! For six easy payments of just $199,999,999,999.99, Astr-O-Corp has volunteered to send their prototype low orbit fighter to intercept Galactopus™. Since it’s still in the prototype phase, the laser cannons aren’t powerful enough to destroy Galactopus™, but they can chip away his Octonuim armor. Collect eight pieces of Octonium and add them to the ship’s reactors and the cannon will be powerful enough to finish Galactopus™ off once and for all!

RHillFake has let us know via our fancy contact form that he released his first Atari VCS game Rocket Pod.

The game is explained overall fast and easy. Get your vehicle onto it’s landing base and do not collide with the wall. The game features six levels. After the six levels the game restarts, but the ship movement will be a bit more furious.

In atari2600land‘s Plim Aliens have landed and are trying to annoy Frank! Can Frank survive the alien onslaught of annoyingness?

Release notes:

I’ve just decided to have Plim be 32k. For some reason I decided to work on it again. I found a bug though in level 1 involving the end of it. There are two versions I’ve uploaded here. plim60.bas.bin is at the end of the game. The final fight. I need some feedback as to its difficulty. Too hard? Too easy? Also, plim60begin.bas.bin starts you at the very beginning of the game so you can have the full plim experience before you get to the final fight. Right now if you beat the alien king on the final fight, it just loops back, but I plan on programming in a final cut scene to end the story. I will not make that version public. You’ll have to get Plim and beat it yourself to see the final ending. But first I have to think one up, or I could just say “to be continued” and make a Plim 2?

Although we have seen many homebrew games around the net the past years Game Panic LCD seems to be different. In how far different you may ask? Well it has a LCD game / Game & Watch game feeling, but is for the Atari VCS. Responsible for this piece of work is theloon along with John Hancock. The game is explained quite easy: Dash to the other side of the screen for points!

Thanks to theloon himself for the news via e-mail!
