Control panel removable overlays for golden tee
« on: March 15, 2014, 02:08:14 pm »
Back in the day, on my c64 we (2 brothers and I) were absolutely obsessed with Ace of Aces. So much in fact that my older brother cut out a piece of cardboard to surround the keys and made a map of what each button did (there were a lot of buttons for that one if I recall correctly.) It was genius... for a ten year old.

I am going to do one similar for Golden Tee Golf that fits around my trackball. That way everyone else can learn the moves. I will have it laminated and just put it on top of the control panel when I have a game going. I will also post it for anyone else to use if they so wish.

Are there any other games that warrant such a card?

Thats a cool idea. Maybe for people that have emulators such as nes snes sega..
How about one that goes around the buttons that lable each one. Like a, b, x, y..
Something of that nature for guests.

I would think Paradroid would warrant this.   >:D

I forgot all about this until the other day someone said I was cheating because I could do all the "fancy" shots. I have 2 versions, one is 3" across for the standard trackball and the other is 3 3/4 which fits around the trim ring on the ultimarc. I will eventually get mine printed nicely but until then a laserjet print is all I have available.
