More games on the site

November 23, 2004 by Brume

News illustration image Since we have recently obtained the agreement of editors such as [url=../games/games_search.php?developer_id=295]Generation 5[/url] and [url=../games/games_search.php?developer_id=372]Myriad[/url], we have uploaded more games on the site. We still try to contact editors, authors and publishers, so we all expect for more downloads in the next weeks.

Also thanks to kind answers we received from people of Generation 5, Myriad, Lankhor, Carraz, etc. We really appreciate your help and your agreement. Keep the oldies alive!

238 sprites by ULM!

November 18, 2004 by Brume

News illustration image As the forum was down, Gunstick didn't publish his record until today. It's a pity: he managed to beat the old record by Leonard with 238 sprites on the screen!
30 sprites more, and he could reach the current record (268 by Leonard again). Let's the contest continue Smiley
Finally it's a nice new screen by the mythic ULM. And... Gunstick announce also a forthcoming demo!

Download now the 238 sprites demo by Unlimited Matricks.

Game of the week-end #2

November 13, 2004 by Brume

News illustration image Most of you waited for more news about the forum. Sorry, it's still down but it should be back very soon! We have found a new host and the upload is on the way.
This week-end we put another rare game as we promised it. This is another french game (we have a bunch of them) and it was published by Carraz Editions. This time, the Atari Legend team provides Roman Policier which let create your own stories like a thriller writer. Funny concept for every kind of public. This is one of the rare stuffs made by Carraz which isn't an educational game. Already a big thank you to the fine people of Carraz for making this possible!

Go there and download Roman Policier. Also more Carraz games will be available very soon ;-)
