Games ready to be downloaded

August 7, 2005 by Marcer

Since couple of weeks I have been very active at uploading and sorting out PD/SW games.

I was really irritated over the small amount of games we got online. I think there were 150 games when I started.

This had to change. So now look again. 701 games!
I have been uploading and hunting for the latest versions etc..

If somebody has a more up-to-date version of a game, please contact me at:
www.atari-forum.com

Please enjoy the games, and more is comming! Smiley

Jagware.org

July 15, 2005 by Brume

News illustration image A new website about Jaguar console development was officially open some days ago. Nothing Atari ST related but... the website and the forum are maintained by a crew of various developers, which includes among its members GT Turbo from Cerebral Vortex Software Development (mainly known for the game Tiles Osmosis and the demos Jade and Mental Deflagration). It's a nice place to discuss about coding, hardware, etc. Also here you can find a preview of Poong... for Jaguar of course!

Go to Jagware.org but don't be to frighten by the French language ;-)

Atari Legend Presents Willow

July 3, 2005 by Marcer

News illustration image We are proud to present to you an old classic for the Atari ST. Based on the movie with the same title, [b]Willow[/b] is a rare classic by Lucasfilm games. This game was, to my knowledge, never available on the well known compact discs. We, games hunters at Atari Legend, hope to keep the memory of this title alive by presenting it to you. You can find out more detail here. Make sure to post your experiences in the comments section of the game page.

Even though this is considered abandoneware by most, it is not our intention to dissatisfy the creators. So if anyone has anything against this release, let us know and it will be disabled.

Enjoy it.

Atari Legend presents Dungeon Master

July 3, 2005 by Marcer

News illustration image For those of you who haven't noticed it, we really have some crazy Dungeon Master freaks on the AL bandwagon. They recently uncovered the German (v1.2) and French (v1.3) versions of this game. So these are now available at this site. Even though this game isn't commercialy available anymore, this still isn't shareware. So if there are people who want this thing removed, please let us know and we'll do so. You'll find more info on both releases at our Dungeon Master page.

Random review

When first booting up Ozone, it reminded me of the classic Starquake. Ozone also features large, upwards levels but there is no scrolling to the left or right. When the main hero leaves the screen from one side, he will return on the other side and vice versa. There are, however, doors that open up a completely different part of the level, adding more complexity and variation.

Did you know?

Epyx created a handheld system called the "Handy". It was purchased by Atari and renamed "Lynx".
