You can format a chat by selecting a part (or the totality) of it and then select one of the buttons/list.

  • Star Castle 2600 - Retroids Exclusive Interview with D. Scott Williamson

    I'm pleased to announce our Retroids exclusive interview with technology supervisor at High Voltage Software and creator of Star Castle 2600, D. Scott Williamson. Scott was kind enough to speak with me about the trials and tribulations of getting the arcade game, Star Castle ported over to the Atari 2600. Many have tried before, including Howard Scott Warshaw, creator of Yars' Revenge back in the 1980s. Decades later, Scott was finally able to pull it off in his spare time and make a great version for the VCS.

    Due to positive response from many people wanting to see this project come to fruition, Scott began a Kickstarter page for Star Castle 2600. Pledges poured in, and in a matter of days, his initial goal was met.


    You can still pledge on the Star Castle 2600 Kickstarter page until Thursday, May 24th for rewards such as the game itself as a Stella emulator compatible ROM, a working cartridge with flashing LEDs, and more! This may be your only chance to get a one-of-a-kind Star Castle 2600 cartridge, as it is exclusive to the Kickstarter project and no more cartridges or materials are planned to be made.

      Only 8 more days to go before pledges end. This may be your last chance to get a cartridge if you want one.

      Oh and good news for our friends across the pond:
      PAL & NTSC versions of Star Castle cartridges are now available!
