A prototype of an unreleased variant of the Activision TV Games Plug & Play system running on SNES hardware.
Notes
- Developed by DC Studios for Toymax
- The released version runs on NES hardware
- Contains River Raid. While X can be used to leave, it goes back to the game
- Visuals appear as intended on ZSNES compared to other emulators
- Contains an associated readme file, labeled riv.txt:
River-raid (riv.bin)
--------------------
Current Status: 09-08-2000:
- game works well enough to get the feel of the game
Tasks which are still to be completed:
- stop missiles when they travel over land
(although this doesn't really affect the way the game plays)
- make screen flash when bridge is destroyed (pretty simple)
- align sprites completely accurately
- make collisions bit-wise accurate
