Thanks so much for playing and enjoying, John!! Glad you're rocking to my tunes 🙂
hi, i just got this game on my mac m1. when i launch it, it opens a black screen for a couple seconds, then crashes. do you by chance know why?
Good review ! Looks super cool. Love the translucent design.
I played on the VIC 20
Hey John, I know you reviewed the bluetooth Atari VCS Classic controller. Have you tried connecting it to the switch to provide potentiometer/spinner/paddle control?
Star raiders. Choplifter. Super cobra.
Without a precision knob, there is absolutely no way to get the accuracy needed. For example in this vid the stick is being jerked and nudged. Total fail.
A few recharges I want.
Tempus Recharged
Warlord Recharged
Gauntlet Recharged
I would want Rolling Thunder Recharge but that is actually a Namco game.
Battlezone Recharged
Centerpeed Recharged
Cloak & Dagger Recharged
How is the control without a spinner ? And have you tried the spinner on the classic VCS controller ? For some reason , If these recharged games kept coming I will eventually get a VCS if the controllers are good .
John, how does this control? I've always missed the precision that the 2600 paddle controller allowed for games of this type and usually wind up frustrated by using a D-pad or stick.
Atari should recruit Jeff Minter to recreate more of the ‘recharged’ versions of their classics. He is the king of reborn classics.
This looks fun to play!
Would love to see a flat shaded remake of Hard drivin’ those old Atari 3D games were kind fun, just those graphics were too much for the time and things floated a bit too much.
Tighten them up, a bit and add some neon 2020 effects to spice things up, and release it.
Looks really good!
Bring back the PADDLE CONTROLLER please
Looks good. I want recharged versions of breakout and asteroids. They're my 2 favorite Atari games. I'll wait for a sale though.
I am not a fan of the vector-based graphics. honestly I think the original breakout and arkanoid look better
John, we can always know you are smiling as you talk and it makes us feel a huge sympathy for you. You really seem to be a nice guy.
Demons to Diamonds would make for a very interesting "deep track" game to be recharged
Anybody knows if you can play with the Atari classic controller on consoles other than VCS? this one and the others Recharged games.
I agree, Warlords & Yars' Revenge: Recharged would be great. I'd really also love to see Combat: Recharged – that would be some really fun co-op!
Please do a video of this on the VCS if you decide to buy it. I am interested in hearing how the controllers work on Breakout Recharged.
I'll be buying it on the vcs
getting this day 1 on steam loved ricochet games and magic ball games as a kid havent never played breakout because how old it is but this game gives me the chance to finally play it😀
i was born in 75, and Breakout is one of my earliest memories of home video games. My uncle had a 2600 (OG VCS at the time), heavy sixer with a small pile of games. We were left with my older cousin as a babysitter and spent pretty much an entire day playing. Great early memories! I'll definitely check out the recharged version!
i wonder if this particular game would not be suitable for playing with that touchpad on the controller …. not sure though
Did Jeff Minter work on this?
– the Pink Floyd references
– the score font
– the homing missiles behaviour
etc.
Hmmmm!
