The English version of Maya is now fully patched

October 8, 2007 by Brume

News illustration image Back in 1989: the editor Silmarils released games such as Targhan, Wind Surf Willy and Maya (or Le Fetiche Maya). Until today the last one was mainly spread in French.

Some weeks ago dungeon.master found the English version in his Ali Baba's cave. Klapauzius worked on it, and guess what? He fixed it completely: so Maya now works on Atari ST/STE and Falcon (yes!). Also you can install it on your hard drive if you like.
Klapauzius also added two trainers: unlimited gas/oil and no energy loss. Last but not least: hit H to toggle 50/60Hz screen refresh (not on Falcon), and L to toggle Falcon's internal loudspeaker on/off.

Thanks must go to Jace/ST Knights for the intro, ST Survivor for the picture, Ultra and Tao for the tune.

All you have now is to download Maya. Hope you'll like this game if you still don't know it!

Les Voyageurs du Temps with sampled tunes

October 3, 2007 by Brume

News illustration image Who said that old games have yet spilled out their secrets?

Les Voyageurs du Temps (aka Future Wars Time Travellers) is probably one of the most famous adventures on Atari ST. The great soundchip tune, the cool graphics, the fantastic story... well, no doubt one of our favorite games!

A few users discussed many times about a version of the game with sampled musics on Atari-forum and Yaronet board. We had never seen this version and we all thought they mixed up the Amiga and the Atari ST disks.

But it's true! We found this version! Les Voyageurs du Temps includes sampled musics! You need an Atari STE or Steem+Tos 1.62 (or higher) in order to listen to them!

Still not convinced? Just collect the 3 disks available here and listen to the music!
Please note the disks are still protected: you will need the codes . A cracked/patched version by us may appear one day, stay tuned. And who knows? An English version, why not?

Random review

Super Cycle is one of the first games I ever played on my Atari ST. Seeing it again after so many years really brought back some great memories. I used to play this a lot with my little sister. I remember never being able to beat it. Now, almost 15 years later, I finished it in 20 minutes on the "easy" level.

Did you know?

Did you know that there are some love messages in the TOS ROMs of the ST? In fact you can find the strings "Dave StaUgas loves Bea Hablig" and "JIM LOVES JENEANE" in all TOS ROMs with version number 1.xx and 2.0x!
