GameArchive Logo FACTOID:
The production version of Atari's Tempest was based on a re-occuring dream the designer was having where monsters were crawling out of a hole in the ground and he had to kill them before they reached the rim. (source D&M;)

It has been a long time coming but there is now an affordable alternative to the vanishing Wintron HV unit. Mark Shostak at Cinelabs has designed an easy to install and stable replacement HV unit.

Internet Pinball Serial Number Database (JUNE 14,2006 06:46 PM)
I have finished a side project called The Internet Pinball Serial Number Database (IPSND) which is an attempt to resurrect the old Internet Pinball Project. Im not sure what will become of it but if you have any pinball machines in your possession, please register them so we can have a registry of all games parts or complete. Check it out.
Thunderball Preliminary Docs Added (FEBRUARY 23,2006 03:17 PM)
I received a copy of the Thunderball (Willliams Level 7) preliminary owners manual from Steve Winslow and have put it up in the Williams Documentation section. All you Thunderball owners are in luck now... all 10 of you! :-)
Williams Software Fixes (FEBRUARY 01,2006 12:34 PM)
It had always been a dream of mine to program at Williams Electronics since I was a kid, but now since they are out of business, Im not thinking that will happen anytime soon. So in trying to stay true to my dream, I am officially announcing that I will be taking requests to modify Williams Level 7 game code in order to fix bugs etc. I will make a web page later this month with the details but for now my first project is to finish my new Jungle Lord ROM set which will include more speech, better sounds and more lamp animation etc. Gameplay rules will not be changed. The next project will be to add background sound to Williams Defender pinball machine, a feature that is drastically missing. Details can be found at http://level7.askey.org
