Yes! Crystalis is by far one of my favorite NES games.

No need to apologize for a bump.

We just released Tommy T's sound editor (albeit, not in February), but we still plan on releasing a new rom this month. 

Shipping nearly 100 games over the course of this week has kept us pretty busy.  Once the Kitty's Catch sale cools down we'll have more time to focus on a release.  Keep in mind that the KC rom will be released as soon as the game sells out, so you'll basically be getting three releases in a month's time (two of which are unreleased).

Great work guys. I'd dump anything I have, but all mine can already be found on the net as far as I know.

Overdue, but we're bringing you both a February and March release double whammy!

First up, with our successful near sell out of Kitty's Catch, anyone who didn't purchase a copy can now enjoy the original unedited ROM!



Also, thanks to Kirakid we are bringing you a VERY early build of Color a Dinosaur. This thing has a ton of cool and fun things to check out, but I'll leave it up to you all to discover it all!  (pictured top right).



On a side note, I think Matt and I are going to slow down with our releases for a bit. The money involved in hunting these things down really has been adding up, and I just don't think we can afford to keep releasing these so often. Not looking to horde them or lock them away, but I don't know think we'll be doing them every month anymore.

Thanks for all of the support, and enjoy the games!

Here is my rough draft of what would later become the instructions for the game. Although not perfect, these should help people enjoy it.

"Kitty's Catch is a two player head to head video game where players compete to see who can catch more fish and collect the most shells before time runs out. Player 1 controls the adorable pink Kitty Pitter, while Player 2 controls his brother, Patter.

The object of the game is to catch enough fish to fill up your bucket before your brother. Once a Kitty has filled their bucket, their brother will have to hand over a shell to the victor. Whichever cat has the most shells when all of the stars have left the sky will win their mother's affection and provide dinner for their Kitty family.

Controls:

Any Direction on the D-Pad: Extend tail, change color of cat when game is paused
A or B: Lower fishing line
Start: Pause

Once you press a direction on the D-Pad, your Kitty will extend it's tail out, and then retract it. You may press A or B at any time to lower your fishing line. Once you lower your line, you can not reel it up until your hook reaches the bottom of the screen. You're bucket can fit 128 lbs of fish, keep this in mind while you're fishing!

Fish:

Clown Fish: The first fish you are introduced to in the game. They are slow and swim in a straight line. They weigh 4 lbs when caught.
Sea Robin: A purple fish who first appears on the second level, they swim slightly up and down across the pond. It weighs 8 lbs when caught.
Angel Fish: A large pretty fish, these guys can be picky and tough to catch. They weigh 12 lbs.
Electric Eel: These shocking pest will trap your fishing line until they've slowly past. It is best to stay out of their way.
Jelly Fish: These evil buggers spawn after certain fish are caught. They will follow your hook, and if caught, will take away all of your power ups! Lucky for you, only one jelly fish can be on screen at a time, but beware!
Great White Shark: This beast will greatly fill your bucket, if you can catch him that is. He can spawn and scare away all other fish if you collect a tin can when you have the music note.

Power-Ups:

When your Kitty collects a Tin can left over by a fish, it grants you special abilities. Read on to find out how to super charge your Kitty!
Treble Hook: Your first power up, this will allow you to catch tricky fish easier.
Music Box: Plays the song of the sea for your Kitty, calling only the biggest fish to your location. This doubles the weight of all fish you catch!
Slow Down: All fish will slow down for a moment, making them easier to catch:
Shark Call: The ultimate power up, calling the Great White could easily change the tide in your favor!"

It can be found right in the first post.  It's listed as KC Best.  We purchased multiple Kitty's Catch builds, and the release is the furthest along/complete build.

I think its time for me to add something to this thread

OK so a little while ago I purchased an SNES prototype off of a member of the DP forums this Prototype was for the game Tecmo Super NBA Basketball. this game has at least one difference from the released version. when the title of the game scrolls across the screen instead of saying Tecmo Super NBA Basketball it says Tecmo Super PRO Basketball. Now whether or not their are more differences I have no idea but here you go think of it as a Thank you! 
here is a link to the original post on the DP forums with a link in that thread with pictures and video of the prototype in action

http://www.digitpress.com/forum/s...

and here is a link to the actual file.

http://www.yourfilehost.com/media...

I don't know if this is against the rules or not because I don't think I've run across an SNES prototype's Rom file here on NA but just to be safe I'm hosting it off site
