Daniel is a kind of "Godfather" in the ColecoVision programming.
Possibly one with the most experience on a technical view.
He lives in Quebec, Canada.
And Daniel are indeed a permanent member of the AdamCon.
ADAM Com is members who meet once a year to exchange experiences on
everything related to the ADAM and ColecoVision.
Daniel has repeatedly organized and hosted this meeting.
ColecoVision become his passion after he had worked with Vic 20 and other
home-computers.
Daniel has an amazing ability to get ideas for creating games,
and he is not in the way of helping others.
To illustrate that he would like to help others, you can see below on this
label from Penguin Land.
This label is rare, and may not be available in over 20 copies.
It's made of Bienvenu for Steve Bégin for use with the Colecovision
version of Penguin Land from 2003.
To spread interest more, was it agreed between Luc Miron from Team Pixelboy,
François from CollectorVision and Steve Bégin
to complete the game.
The game was re-released in 2010 by CollectorVision, now with a new box and label design.
The newest from his hand is
making music for the CV.
For example Michael Jackson, Theme from Ghostbusters and later Sabrina's "Boys
boys boys".
But also in Daniel's own games implements the digital samples.
With the CV tools, he can do magic with his creativity.
Daniel have also done a personal software menu for a ColecoVision
multicart project.
He have two prototypes left in his collection and used one of them to test
his projects, and that is long before AtariMax USB 128:1 and the ultimate MultiCart ever
came out.
Daniel make his own tools and programs for
the CV, and he updates them now and then.
Furthermore, Daniel is also adept at the early existing programs as others
have long put behind them.
Marat Fayzullin was one of the first to
program for ColecoVision, and some of Marat's tools is very
useful for Daniel.
Daniel put himself into things, and he like to find out how things can be
solved.
He read a lot and wrote it for public use.
He have a very useful website, and was a former user on YouTube.
Via YouTube could Daniel show what he means with all he wrote and came up
with.
You can actually better understand what is meant in a given situation.

Some of Daniels first work is some tools, and very small games.
Daniel is that person which has made most games and applications for
ColecoVision ever.
Maybe over 50 games and many useful tools also for ColecoVision.
Daniel is a person that not go for games
that are ported for the CV.
Especially not games previously released for
the MSX system.
Daniel will like that the games are being done today must be original, but
still be games as they themselves have invented.
Therefore will you never see a game from Daniel as you already know, Dac-Man
excluded.
But you've got a position until you take a new one.
Sega's Space Harrier is seen from Daniel's hand, and several of Sega's SG-1000 projects is seen.
Many of those games Daniel has done is
small and simple, and anyone can play them without being too
difficult.
Daniel will gladly share with others, he publish now and then the source code,
and release many times a ROM for download.
One of Daniels greatest game ever may be the
Ghost Blaster release.
It came out in 2009 in a cartridge format, with box, label and a manual.
The cartridge shell was a special milky version with a transparent label.
The game is a kind of Ghostbuster game and the title song is indeed from
the Ghostbuster game of the same name.
The difference here is that, Daniel himself wrote the song and gameplay note for note,
and bit for bit.
Also conventions from more familiar numbers, including Michael Jackson and
last Super Ghouls 'N Ghosts theme.
What a work he did here.
He receives also several query plans from
homebrewers to deliver either a piece of code to their games, or help with
music and sounds for their games.
Luc Miron, Jean-Philippe MEOLA and latest Michel Louvet are just some of the
users that daniel has helped with his music and sounds.
And some of the games are: CV Boxxle and for Youki's Smurf CV game, also
Side Trak and Bomb 'n Blast just to name a few.
Also 3 melodies are done for the Venus Spa
Video Game project, which starts
in September 2010.
