here's the preview of a game I started working on back in November 2008, during a break from the development of BOH.
The game is called "HOC INIT EXIT", which is Latin for "whatever gets in, gets out" (it's a joke among a group of friends of mine - unfortunately, it would be too long to explain).
Since I don't know when/if I'll be able to finish it, I decided to release it as it's fully playable anyway (missing features: special phase at the end of levels, sound and scores): whoever is interested can download the D64 image from here.
Enjoy!

I'm glad you like its aspect. The game is simple - it's a joke! - and incomplete, but may be entertain for a little a while
Incidentally, I just picked up my boxed copy of BOH today, from the post office (i'm the guy from the comments thread on tigsource). Looks nice!
Uhm... let me guess, are you nullerator?
I'm very happy to hear the package arrived to destination (it's always a big relief to hear that) and that you like it

I have some unused music you could use for your game if you're interested? It was originally composed for a different game, but that particular game never got finished, or released.

Thanks, that would be cool! But development at the moment frozen, and it's impossible now to say when/if I'll resume it

Hi Richard, I have decided to at least add audio to the game, so, if you're still interested, you could contribute. I just posted the specifications of what I need in this thread on CSDb (by the way, accidentally you and your games happened to be dragged in the discussion, I hope you don't mind).
I tried this thinking I'd give it a shot for a minute and played it until level 22. Nice arcade game and it would certainly be nice to have sounds.
It would also benefit from a few small features, like bad food, or a timer that keeps track of how fast you beat levels. (score seems sort of useless in a game like this since you can stay on a level indefinitely)
