Balloonacy 2 idiocy

I have to feel so bad for Richard, being brave enough to release his own game without trainers.

Within 24 hours of his releasing a game, there appears a 2 trainer version. An hour or two later a 3 trainer version. The next day there's a 4 trainer version and finally a 6 trainer version.

I'll hold out for the Nostalgia +20 version with hi score saver. *groan*

Richard must feel like Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie feel when the National Enquirer vultures swoop down upon them. Granted you're open game when you release something but it's pretty laughable to see so many people pounce upon Richard's game like a homeless man chasing a bagel rolling down the street.

Let's clear this up to save time:

MEGA TRAINER
=============
Change $7003 to JMP $2c00

2c00 jsr $70a1
2c03 jsr $ffe4
2c06 cmp #$2a
bne XX
inc $09
XX rts

This plays the music while giving you the key when you hit the star key.
======================

Infinite Lives: EA EA EA (three NOP's) at $394e

==========================

Infinite time: EA EA EA at $3ba1

==========================
Sprite Collision off = RTS at $3a9d

Save $e000-$f000 when you go to save the memory.

We need a starting level option and a button to hold down for temporary sprite collision bypass. I'd laugh but I'm sure in a day this WILL happen. Mark my words.

*sighs* Note to Richard, perhaps in your next game you could include a hidden trainer with every conceivable option. Granted your game was difficult to play but I hate to see it re-released without your intro and directory tree.

PS. All the above was done without looking at any of the versions out there. I became bored :)

Well... uhm....

1) Richard continues to produce software for the C64 in an era where so few other programmers do.

2) I've written games that have found there way back into the scene with trainers. Nobody likes to have their intro ripped off and replaced with someone elses. If the intro is left intact, that's somewhat consoling.

3) This business of, the more trainers the better, is pretty lame. Who needs 20 trainers, I mean come on... you know as well as I do it's for bragging rights. There are no real games so any public domain game or fellow scener game gets ripped to shreds so someone can call it a release.

4) There is no reason not to support Richard. He writes his own music, codes his own demos and makes his own graphics and releases these to the scene.

5) It takes very little skill to train. It takes more to code.

So there :)

All of the releases are from lamer labels... clearly a sign of how people support Richard... the guy is a fuckwit.

richard is a strange guy, but you'll cry him back when the scene will have no new releases for years.

Richard is not a real person.

I still suspect TMR is playing a trick on us.

Question is, why didn't you add those trainers
on your SCROTUM version ?

Well, you are giving Richard too much credit here by comparing him with Angelina Jolie.

After seeing Wanderers Scrotum (release) I saw that more trainers could be done.
Troep topped my release so if you take that thumb out of your ass you can see that this wasn't a pisstake on Richard but some oldschool competition a la Gamers Guide.

Now please go collect some suxx0r ntsc crap intro's for your site and let us do our thing.

One of the releases is by Fortress, Bayliss treats *himself* that way so who is anyone else to argue?
