Mr Run and Jump for the Atari 2600: A Short Review

[@IuriFiedoruk]

This game shows what Atari 2600 can become when used for modern indie game mechanics. Even with no scrolling, it can give great results.

Indeed. I retrospect I feel I should have talked about how smooth the animation of the main sprite is. Plus the variety of screens. It’s like a spiritual successor to Pitfall!

Mr Run and Jump recharged for the other consoles looks really good.

I thought so too. I’ve been tempted to get the vcs but I already have too much stuff and there are only so many hours in the day, heheh.

@CoachTroyRetro I think Steam is the best way to go. I hear you looks like I've been collecting more than playing unfortunately.

Trying to keep that balance is hard. I keep only few games set to play at a time so I can focus. But then the ‘to do’ list keeps growing, heheh.
