MAME Crazy Kong Part II set 1 ckongpt2 2018 02 05 8 07 51 PM Daniel Kovacs 2018-02-06 | Crazy Kong II is a Donkey Kong Bootleg by Falcon/Zaccaria - this is the first Donkey Kong game I played in the arcade as a child. Being a Bootleg you wouldn't expect it to be better than the Nintendo version, but I enjoyed this one more. It feels like a Russian or Eastern European cold war clone or something. Playing it now is still a lot of fun but leaves me feeling like I've done something dirty.

Lionheart for the Commodore-Amiga Daniel Kovacs 2015-04-03 | Developed and published by Thalion in 1993. Lionheart was a platform hack/slash game for the Commodore Amiga - was not released on any other platform and if I remember correctly, was the last game released by Thalion.I played through this using an infinite lives cheat. The game really isn't that hard, it had just been years since I played it through to completion.Captured on a Commodore Amiga 1200.

The music in the 1st level doesn't play and there is some flickering. This is likely due to this being a PAL game played in NTSC.This game is HARD. I had to play with infinite lives just to make it anywhere.

Woodys World for the Commodore-Amiga Daniel Kovacs 2015-02-26 | Released in 1993 by Acid Worldwide, developed by Vision. Great platformer, a bit on the difficult side, with touchy controls. I first played this on my Amiga 600 - a one level demo from a cover disk - I think it was on The One magazine, I think. I had to run my Amiga in PAL to get this to run.I don't think this was ported/released on any other platform.Captured from an Amiga 1200

Donkey Kong Jr for the Commodore 64 Daniel Kovacs 2014-11-11 | Released on November 8, 2014. This is in my opinion one of the best home releases of this game. I am unsure the story behind why the C64 never saw an official nintendo release of this game, but I am sure it had a lot to do with timing, the release of the Famicom/NES, Coleco's mistake showing Donkey Kong off on the Colecovision when they hadn't secured a liscence yet to do so. I could speculate for hours.Credit to:Code .... Mr. SID of HVSC Crew, Megadesigns IncorporatedMusic .... encore of UndoneGraphics .... STE'86This was captured on an NTSC Commodore 64.

Sonic 2: Pink Edition Daniel Kovacs 2014-08-05 | Sonic the Hedgehog 2: Pink EditionSonic the Hedgehog has been replaced by Amy (Sonic's girlfriend? I don't know the backstory here) in this hack of Sonic 2. This is not just a game with modified sprites - a bunch of the code for Amy's controls have been rewritten - the spin dash has been replaced by a hammer and there's some new jumping attack.More information about the hack can be found at:http://info.sonicretro.org/Sonic_the_Hedgehog_2:_Pink_EditionThere is a 30 second or so pause at the end of level 2 that I forgot to edit out. Just skip past it.

Geos controlled with motion sensing controller Daniel Kovacs 2013-12-08 | GEOS controlled with Leif Bloomquist's motion sensing controller. This was filmed after the event. After Leif tried it I drew a nice christmas scene in GeoPaint. The controller is based on an Arduino and a 9 degrees of freedom motion sensor and some ICs to convert the signals to a format that's compatible with DB9 style controllers. This device could be used to control any system that uses Atari compatible controllers. My experience with this - once you get used to the directional controls - tilting the glove left, right up and down - it was very easy to use and felt natural. For the fire button, Leif used conductive fabric (measures 0 ohms on a mutimeter) on the thumb and index finger, when you touch the finger and thumb together, it closes the circuit and generates the "fire button" signal. Fine movements though, a little more difficult as the sensor reacts to even small movements. Awesome job, Leif!
