The new information is kinda-like the time traveling panel of the Delorean in "Back to the Future" but in black in white...LOL!
I also added a new bonus game, this one is called "Vector Tennis", simply put, it is the Table Tennis game but in vector form like if it was played on a Vectrex or oscilloscope. But i also deleted cart#11 from the menu since now it is used with the homebrew game "Red vs. Blue" and will be also used in the game "Odball" which Robert A. Vinciguerra (aka Rev.Rob) included the cartridge #11 with the Odball game, as shown below:
Cartridge #11 was unreleased by Magnavox, but Rev.Rob has self-made a couple to be enjoyed with the very first homebrew game released in 2009.
Other changes made was i redesigned a few overlays so it could look like the real thing, meaning if you were using real overlays on a real TV. The "States" overlay still gives me a black background instead of a grey background...oh well...the game simply sucks so maybe i will try to correct this in a future release.
Oh and here's a screenshot of the splash screen (intro screen):
Hope people will like it. Took me a couple of hours doing this image. And finally, i also tested a future homebrew game which should be released in Spring 2016 by djfurreh on the Atari Age forum: http://atariage.com/forums/topic/240541-magnavox-odyssey-hadeaus-war-homebrew/
That's the design of the future game "Hadeaus War!" that djfurreh is working on. Still unknown if this will be the final version of the overlay but at least we can see what it could be like on a TV or more likely on the OdySim if the author will approve to be included with the OdySim.

We would LOVE to work with you on this. We'll give you all the info you need on Hadeaus War! (I am the Creator) I will say, That overlay Is PROBABLY going to change If I even get one made as I might cut it to save on production and to make this delay a little shorter as I REALLY want to get it done. That being said, I would love to work something out where maybe I can make one that will be exclusive for your software.
On a side note, there may be a name change too as it led to confusion, as Hadeaus is only the name of a City on the game board ... bad decision on my part.
Info: The game is on delay for a few reasons (as it is now 2017),
1: No one in the studio's location will print the box because "Odyssey is a registered trademark of the Magnavox Company" so self-printing is being made.
2. The game was too short and could easily be finished in a few minutes making it rather boring.
3. Molds for the game pieces for some reason never showed up??? Masters are lost in the mail???
