I was lucky to acquire Eduardo's releases Space Invaders Collection and Sky Jaguar.

Who has the other releases (Yie Ar Kung-Fu, Magical Tree, Road Fighter), how do they play?

I have magical tree and Road fighter

they are good little games

well polished, in fact I have 4 (sky jaguar and space invaders coll) and even if shmup is one of my favorite genre of games , I am not too keen on SKy Jaguar (usual awful scrolling and simplicity of the gameplay)

Yes, Sky Jaguar's scrolling is really badly done – I removed the cartridge one minute after I began to play.
Having read about the difficulties at Opcode Games and no more stock of games like Round Tree and Road Fighter, there won't come out anything new in years to come.

I'm not to much into the Coleco hombrew scene, but a friend has send me a link to a youtube video of "Pac-Man Collection" some time ago. At least they've started to program it…

I have RoadFighter and Yie Ar Kung Fu.  I really like Roadfighter but I'm not a big fan of Kung Fu games so I don't play that one as much.  I also am on the waiting list for the PacMan Collection.  It's release has been delayed but should be out soon.

email received today:

Hello Laurent!

We are pleased to inform you that your copy of Pac-Man Collection for ColecoVision, with a limited-edition yellow cartridge, is ready to be purchased, for 40$US (shipping not included).

Because of the sheer number of pre-orders and the limited quantities of yellow cartridges, we can only offer you one copy of Pac-Man Collection with a yellow cartridge. If you wish to buy one or more additional copies, they will come with regular black cartridges, and those will only be available in late March, so we will need to put you on a waiting list for those additional copies.

Thanks!  I'll pop in from time to time.  I'm not a PAL collector (yet Ponder) but I enjoy classic systems. 

I got the email from Luc at Opcode games as well.  Can't wait to get my copy of the Pac-Man Collection Lust.

It has been a LONG time but I thought I would update you guys.  I did receive Pac-man Collection and it is incredible!  I'm not exactly sure what it qualifies under, Homebrew or Hack, but it was well worth the wait. 

Since then it appears Luc has left Opcode games and has started his own company.  That might end up being great news for colecovision owners because Eduardo is still at work porting classic arcade games.  I wish them both the best.
