A new homebrew title for the Atari 2600 was introduced at the retro gaming expo in Gothenburg, Sweden this weekend:  J.Ö.R.G.E.N.  The game was created by Daniel Remar  and it is made to be played in NTSC mode.

STORY
-----------------------

 
Piloting the lightning-fast SIV, you have entered J.Ö.R.G.E.N.'s dimension in an attempt to stop its terrible creatures from invading Earth. Collect the SUPER BOMBS to destroy your enemies, dodge the deadly raining LASER PLATES and face off with J.Ö.R.G.E.N. itself in the amazing finale!

GAMEPLAY
-----------------------

 
Collect the yellow SUPER BOMB to defeat your enemy and advance to the next level. Avoid the falling LASER PLATES and ENEMIES.

Hold down the joystick button to TURBO BOOST. Boosting is the key to victory!

You get an extra life when you're halfway to J.Ö.R.G.E.N., and another if you manage to defeat it. Each time you complete the game, the LASER PLATES will fall faster. After clearing the game three times, the enemies will be randomized and you get no more extra lives.

After losing a life, you will restart on the far side of the screen. Don't worry, you will never restart underneath a falling LASER PLATE. When all your lives are lost, the game is over.

Note: There is a short delay before you can restart the game after getting a Game Over.

I've attached the game binary below but the game source and binary can be downloaded here:  http://remar.se/daniel/index.php
