Better late than never...

April 14, 2006 by Klapauzius

News illustration image 19 years have passed since this French game was originally published. Now Atari Legend is very proud to bring you the first English version of

Qin

This is a nice adventure game that takes place in ancient China. Some weeks ago, a 100% version in French had been released by us. Now, after 3 weeks of translating and patching, the English version is ready!

Many thanks must go to all the mates who had helped to overcome the various obstacles - you will find their names in the intro scroller!

Hope you'll enjoy this 'new' game as much as I did hacking it (well, it was a pleasure for the most part ;-) ). And don't forget to vote on the forum if you would like to see more titles translated!

Ooops, nearly forgot the most important bit: the game is of course available for download on this page.

Operation Wolf fully trained

April 11, 2006 by Brume

News illustration image "Operation initiated! Rescue hostages!": here begins one of the most popular games entitled Operation Wolf. Since there were only two-disk versions that were not fully trained, we decided recently to release our own mega-trained-single-disk version!

The game has been totaly hacked, filed and packed by Avenger. He has also trained it with unlimited ammo, grenades and energy.

Last but not least the disk makes use of 1 MB systems which means the game won't have to access the drive while the main data is loaded.

What else to ask? If you want more, feel free to drop a message on the forum, we'll be glad to add more bonuses in our next releases.

The disk is get-at-able on Operation Wolf page. Does it mean the release fest is back? Mmmm, who knows? Smiley

Le Casque Des Forgerons, an old french game

April 6, 2006 by Brume

News illustration image After the recent break of the site, we start now to wake up (slowlyyy...). We saw recently a request from our friends of aitpast.com, who looked for the game Le Casque Des Forgerons. It's a very rare stuff but it was already supplied by Shredder on both STT files some years ago and released on missing.atari.org. Looks like the site has disapeared now and the game has vanished. Dam webmaster Smiley

The game wasn't protected so the STT format was useless. cb has merged both disks into one, and voila! Please note Le Casque Des Forgerons was released by an unknown company (Coconuts?) in the early years of the Atari ST. So if you have any information about it, feel free to drop us an e-mail.

Take a look at Le Casque Des Forgerons to grab the disk. Of course, expect for more release very very soon!

Two rare demos by Czex

April 2, 2006 by Brume

News illustration image We are a bit late this time because the bandwith was exceeded and the site was unavailable for more than a week. Sorry for the unpleasantness, we are trying to find a solution.

The problem isn't the storage of the .ZIP files (which doesn't use so much bandwith), but it comes from new features. We have recently installed a new Cpanel which is very cool because it brings many more possibilities to edit games details, but it uses too much bandwith.

Our team of coders are working on a solution. We wish them all the best! Of course the bandwith allowed will be probably increased in the next months considering the new coming sections. You'll see them soon Smiley

While the site was unavailable, Lotek Style and Sedma sent both demos that were shown at Demobit'95 but weren't spread so far.

The first demo is a 10k intro done by Czex that reached the third place. It's named Coders Desillusion.

The second one is a full demo created by Czex, too. It's entitled Fanta Morgana. This production won the first price of the party!

Both demos may be downloadable by clicking on the following links: Coders Desillusion and Fanta Morgana.

The release fest continues...

March 23, 2006 by Klapauzius

News illustration image To satisfy the daily needs of all the ST games collectors out there, we bring you another gem today. This time it's an adventure game and probably one of the earliest commercial titles for our beloved machine:

Treasure Island

The plot in this game is of course based on the famous book by Robert Louis Stevenson (you have heard of him, haven't you?).

Fred_R cracked the original disks and Klapauzius patched the game to run off one disk and also from hard disk. Additionally, this version does not require an extra disk for saving your games. The intro was coded by our friends from MJJ-Prod.

Watch this space for more scarce games from the same development team! In the meantime, click here and enjoy another rare classic!

Random review

The chiptunes by David Whittaker are really nothing special in my book. Even though I'm a fan of the man, this game features a very mediocre version of the Bond theme. But there are some really nice sound effects present. Just listen to the chopper in the first level. It sounds so real. I love that.
