    Default ColecoVision Jeepers Creepers, October 2001-2007

    Better than the demo version named "Happy Halloween"... but similar at the same time.

    4 screens (levels) : cimetery, tombs, castle (outside), castle (inside)
    2 difficulties : normal and arcade (monsters walk faster)
    3 monsters : skeleton, ghost, and green monster (Frankenstein's creature?)
    2 cut scenes
    music, sounds and digitalized scream and evil laugh

    Screenshots? if I have time, I will make a short video (I'll use Youtube).

    Available? A few cartriges only. missing time and materials (eprom). I will ship a couple of cartridges to Joe Santulli, maybe just in time for the NAVA (october, 27).

    Happy 25th anniversary to the ColecoVision game system!

    Daniel, a question from a few prospective customers.

    The cartridges are numbered. How many will be made, total?

    Actually, my ressources allowed me to make only 25 cartridges. And I keep the number 25 for my own collection.

    A second batch of 25 cartridges will be done only if it's needed.


    Have fun playing this game and...

    HAPPY HALLOWEEN!

    I don't want to start rumors, but there are a few intentional things in this game, like the number of creatures (each time, a multiple of 25, except for one wave of ghosts), and also the reference to Coleco bankrupt and sell to Hasbro and other companies in 1989 (look carefuly the title screen).

    But, the rest, you can start the speculations, and questions like : what are the names of the actors? why it's a wizard in the final version and a dragon head in the beta version? For those things, I have no answer.

    wow I liked that "making of" video. I am not very technically proficient but that gave me a pretty good idea of what it takes after programing the game to make the cartridge.

    Well, it looks like Digital Press got finaly the cartridges in time for NAVA.

    So, if you want a Jeepers Creepers cartridge you should try to go to their store, or contact them.

    The cartridges all the same in the center of this picture are Jeepers Creepers. Is there any other picture of them?

    Well, the last cartridges are made. A total of 50 cartridges. The production ends now. I may have one cartridge left for sale when you read this message.
