Atari history site Atari lists Gary Shannon and Tod Frye as the original programmers for that game. The Atari XP website attributed Warshaw to the Unreleased 1983 prototype, too. As said by noted game historian Frank Cifaldi, Warshaw had nothing to do with the ROM hack, originally designed for use in the Atari Flashbacks of retro consoles.

What may be an unfortunate copy and paste accident, all three games were at one point attributed to Howard Scott Warshaw, including Yars Return, a 2005 ROM hack fashioned as a sequel to 1982’s classic Yars Revenge. The first three games in the series are Saboteur, Aquaventure, and Yars Return. The series is based on three games, available in standard and limited editions, and the latter with posters, instruction booklets, collectible pins and badges and other goodies. The cartridge collection debut was somewhat messy, though, a 2005 ROM hack of Yars Revenge was incorrectly attributed to the legendary Atari programmer, Howard Scott Warshaw, who invented the 1982 original smash and the famous E.T.Īs mentioned on the official website, the Atari XP program is dedicated to giving unreleased and hard-to-find games new, updated physical cartridges and then selling them for $50 to $100. If you replay the game after a match, survival, or clearing the game, it goes into the match stage, and when you go to Stage 8, it goes dark and stops, so you have to reset it.The people, all of whom counts as Atari today, launched Atari XP, a collectible and playable Atari 2600 cartridges, which have never officially officially been released.2P AI play seems to be in a testing phase, and only Zamza and Jack can play properly.
