Grid Runner Prototype Reproduction
Grid Runner Prototype Reproduction
About all of the Lynx games for sale here:
I acquired a set of prototypes for the Atari Lynx recently and wanted to make them available for everyone to play on real hardware. Let's be honest, I also wanted to add cool things to my collection as well. The trick was how could I do both?
I *think* I have come up with a way to do it. These are high-grade reproductions. They are playable in either a Lynx I or a Lynx II without any problems whatsoever ever. I have had the labels professionally produced and have made the shells on my most detailed 3d printer.
I think they turned out GREAT!
You can enjoy these now for a very low price and they will be around for years to come and not locked up in someone's treasure chest.
About the game itself:
This is is a **little** better than BattleZone, but not by much. It is definitely the front end for a game called "Grid Runner" and you can play it . . . to a certain extent. I mean you can play something more than the BZ demo, but that's a low bar, really. Again, perhaps there is something there I have no grabbed on to in my brief examination.
The original prototype 's label said has been lost to the vagaries of time, someone has hand written "Grid Runner" on a label of the usual Atari Prototype size.
I will post screenshots and videos as soon as I have a chance. BTW, the label on this cartridge is the opening screenshot when turning the game on.
