Frog Feast, which has seen releases on more than 12 video game consoles and arcade systems, is an updated version of the classic game Frog Bog, featuring improved graphics, sound, AI and more. The game made its launch at both the Classic Gaming Expo 2005 and VGXPO, Dallas events on the same day, according to its listing on MobyGames.

MobyGames describes the gameplay as simple to figure out. “In the single player version your goal is to catch as many flies floating about the top of the screen within the time allowed and to beat the AI’s frogs score. In the 2-player version, you do the same but go head-2-head against another player which makes snagging those flies at the last minute, just before your competitor does, a real treat.”

Beyond the release of Frog Feast, RasterSoft’s Charles Doty says he has more in store for Nuon.

“I have a game in early development that I plan to get working on the Nuon,” said Doty in a NUON-Dome forum post. “The game mechanics work, it just a matter of actually creating a fun game.”

Below is a video of the Atari Jaguar CD version of Frog Feast in action.

Rastersoft is well known for its game Frog Feast, which has been ported to a number of classic game platforms including the Atari Jaguar CD, CD-i, Neo Geo CD and more.

Below is the readme file with more details:

This is a wrapper for Nuance, a NUON Emulator.

nWrap was written to support nuance on arcade cabs, so it supports command-line input and ‘esc’ key closing.

Usage is simple:

simply drop nWrap.exe and nWrap.ini in the same directory as nuance.exe

nWrap “Drive:\Path to\your\nuon\files\nuon.run”

This works for files on your harddrive or mounted on a virtualized drive.

Known issues:

IF there’s an error with nuance and it crashes (not as a result of the wrapper) before the video screen appears you may get hung with a black screen.
You can alt+tab and exit nuance, or kill it with taskmanager and exit nWrap.

nWrap.ini contains the resolution of your desktop that you would like it to return to AFTER exiting.
NWrap will run at a resolution of 640×480x32 - so again make sure your monitor can handle that.

These are great collectors items and are in new condition from what I can tell. All I know is VM Labs must have had some big guys working there, because even the medium shirts are pretty big!

First up are some nice Cross pens that feature the NUON logo. For US residents, cost is $3. For those overseas, it is $5. Send PayPal payment to sc@dragonshadow.com. If you want to pay by other means then please contact Skah_T directly at the same e-mail address.

Also available are two boxes of HPI Stealth controllers of unknown working condition. He is looking to unload an entire box at a time (approximately 10-15 controllers) for just the cost of shipping. Again, contact sc@dragonshadow.com if you are interested in a box of NUON controllers that will need some work to function properly.

[And yes, this is the first news post in nearly a year. Apologies for the slacking, but life was pretty crazy for a while. Things have settled down so I will try to get updates in occasionally from now on as things develop. Thanks for visiting!]

Download the file and check out the disc at the DragonShadow Industries site. There is documentation included in the .zip file so download, play around and get some NUON DVD software going!

We’re happy now to be able to share this with everyone, the last available revision of his work. Here’s what the Readme file says is new:

6/08/2007, version 0.5.1:
Fixed compiler bug that caused nearly all programs to crash when constant propagation and
dead code elimination was enabled.

The file has been archived here on our servers and is available on the Downloads page or directly by clicking here.

So, thanks to the help of Ghan_04 and The Helper, the forums are looking much better. Stop in, check it out and say hi!
