Even with the pandemic still going on worldwide (all my sympathies to all who lost a loved one/member of family/friend), the Magnavox Odyssey community (collectors/homebrewers) has been quite active during this period as many of us have more time while being confined at home.
ManCaveArcade (Odyssey Evil) who's made a comeback in the community after a few years, is now releasing not one but 5 new games and on those 5, Hunting Adventure (which at this very moment i'm writing this post has three games left to sell. If you want a copy, go HERE and reserve one before they all go bye-bye) which is a shooting game made for the Rifle Gun (the 1st homebrew for the Rifle Gun). You can read all about it on this AtariAge forum.
He (ManCaveArcade) is already working and taking orders for his third game: Zombie Outbreak. This is another shooting game for the Rifle Gun BUT it will use a totally new game cartridge for the Rifle Gun and this game is only for 1 player. Click on the previous link to read (or order) about this game. For the 3 others homebrews that ManCaveArcade will release, we have to wait and see.
Now, another homebrewer "Mikebloke" which has released freely his first homebrew game called "Space War Demake" is a port of the Space War from the Fairchild Channel F. You can print your own overlay and instruction on the previous link and also, read all about the game.
Now Mikebloke is offering a multicard for the Magnavox Odyssey which replaces all the game cartridges from #01 to #12, so if you are missing one or some game cartridges, this is the opportunity to get an "all-in-one" cartridge for about $25 USD/20 Euros. You can read/order HERE.
(not the final product BTW)
And this is a news at the last minute as i received an email while writing this post, that ManCaveArcade is offering to print boxes for "FREE" Odyssey homebrew games and the first game to be offered a box (and also an overlay & instruction) is "Space War" demake.
You can read all about it HERE. Even homebrewers is collaborating with each other...i love this community!
Thinks that wraps it up so until next, take care folks! :)
