Loved the demo! I really appreciate the accesibility options (particularly color-related ones).

Those machines are similar in hardware, but also have their differences: in both hardware and background/history. Trucho was designed with MSX hardware AND background in mind; it won’t feel the same in ColecoVision… On the other hand, I think a brand new fishing game with a different approach (for example, a remake of Activision’s Fishing Derby, with properly updated graphics and gameplay) can be attractive!
It is an interesting solitaire, and the ambientation of the game is superb.
Unfortunately, the text-based interface is unfriendly and cumbersome; and reduces the desire of trying another round. Maybe more options in screen (enough to choose slot or cancel with just one selecion) and removing the slide-in animation would help.
Overall, it is a good and interesting game (congratulations!), but it is a little rough around the edges.
Hi, Saverio.
I'm afraid I'm not interested in porting the game to SG-1000: code relies on MSX BIOS and requires 8KB of RAM, plus a new soundtrack must be composed. I am already involved into new projects (that are taking too long to be finished), and I don't really want to put them on hold to go back to Stevedore.
I'm sorry this is not the answer you were expecting :/ I wish I had enough free time to be able to finish my projects and also experiment with new platforms (such as SG-1000)...
