Donkey Kong Remix

[channelmanic]

This was done on a stock Tandy Color Computer 3 with a disk drive.

Kick ass thing for a computer that runs a 6809E CPU at <2MHz and only has a 6 bit CPU driven DAC for audio.

That remix looks fantastic! I wonder if this can be translated back to play on the original hardware?

"Well, everything seems to be checking out bit by bit. I have a hand-made prototype board. I have a nice PCB design for board production. I made a nice menu for settings and options. DK Remix now supports saving scores and extra features like switching games and going back to the menu. The hardware design allows features like saving scores and switching back to menu even from regular *unmodified* DK PCB ROMs. (Implementation is super tricky... it's the board that does the tricks because the Z80 is just running normal DK code.)

So, now I have to cough up about 1000$ to get some blank boards made. Populate and assemble them, and then If I sell 15, I probably break even.

I'm not going to ask for pre-orders or anything. I don't even have a store, or a business... but the first few boards ought to be available in a month or so.

Fun times ahead."
