Thanks a lot for doing this tourney. I have been floating in and out of classic gaming/DK stuff for the past year-plus, mostly "out", but it's interesting how, no matter what other stuff I get into, and for how long I stay away, the hobby definitely seems to have a gravitational pull. I see that happen with a lot of us, especially the attempted "retirees." You can check out any time you like, but you can never leave! I played a little Junior in September, but before this tourney, I hadn't played a single credit of DK since July 4th, 2016 (a year and a half ago), and haven't played any CAG tourneys since the last IGBY. It was the remixing of Remix with the Christmas graphics that made this a must-play Event. Brilliant game made even more brilliant!

Thank you for doing this! It was a lot of fun. I'm expecting several new Remix KS's in 2018.

Oh aside from my rage fests i hada blast (I know its hard to believe). Looking forward to the next one!

I can't express enough how grateful I am to John, Jeremy, JC, Chris P, and anyone else associated with this event in any way.  It was a lot of fun to get to watch some DK remix streams and it was incredibly generous for John to "dump" a mame version of the game so that even more people can play, especially considering the amount of time it must've taken to make the sick holiday-themed graphics as well. 

As Jason stated above, I think 2018 will be the year of the Remix KS, there's at least 5 players I can think of right now that are closing in on L=22 or are already KS-ready,  especially with the release of a mamed version of the game.  I can only hope there will be some more Remix tournaments in the future.

All the love good sirs.

Kongrats to all the participants, and especially those in the top 5!  Thanks for putting this on, it was a blast.  Wish I could've spent some more time on it, but I'm happy to improved my previous PB by 3.5x.

I know this is an old thread but I was wondering where I could get the romset that is in the video on this thread. I followed a link that was posted but it's a different version and the graphics were a bit glitched using mame and misfit. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

[killersquirel]

I'm bumping this thread to see if the rom is available anywhere? I can't find it in this thread.

Search in any rom site that supports HBMAME.

The Christmas Remix ROMset is on archive.org.

Has anyone got both working as seperate files in HyperSpin by chance...been trying for days to get the Xmas and Spooky versions working so I can have them both in my setup but everything I tried hasn't worked. They only way they do work is to name them dkongx11 but then you can only have one at a time. Tried setting up HBMame and MisfitMAME in the emulators but keep getting "ahk_class MAME" errors.

Hello everyone, can anyone here provide me with a link to download the roms for Donkey Spooky Remix as well as the Christmas Remix please? 

Thank you in advance!
