Title: New Atari 2600 Homebrew - Kraken Attack!
Post by: TrekMD on November 28, 2013, 03:23:17 AM
Kraken Attach is a new Atari 2600 homebrew which was inspired by the old Nintendo Game and Watch "Octopus".     If the presence of an octopus isn't clear, just check out the video below.  ;)  The binary of the game as well as the source code are posted over at the Salzmafia Blog.

Awesome looking little game.  Simple but that is what Atari 2600 is about, easy to play.

For those wondering, this is the original game that inspired this 2600 version...

Looks good. Always glad to see new games on the old consoles.
