Aktiv8 disk #1 contains:
- Maniac Mansion
- Jet Set Willy
- Robocop

Aktiv9 disk #2 contains:
- Super Starioland
- Stario's Christmas
- Michigan Mike & the lost city of Zorog

ljbk (aka Paulo Simoes) has posted yesterday three new (un)limited screens. This time the demos display 1000, 1500 and 2000 sprites on 512 KB machines or more. Also ljbk writes that he is able to display 2900 sprites on 512 KB and almost 7000 sprites on 1 MB machines! Unfortunately he doesn't want to release this demos because the screen looks more and more as an unlimited sprites screen because you don't see the clearing effect. Anyway the new 2000 sprites is a very good demo! It's probably a new record although it can't contest with Leonard'one.

Get the new limited screens now.

Hello all,

I'm happy to announce the first new game review in over a year. I have taken a closer look at the game BOLD for you. This game has been released this year, and definitely deserves a place in our review database. Check out the review section

Hello all,

GT Turbo (from the Cerebral Vortex team) has send us a little preview from the upcoming falcon game Poong.

This is what the guys have to say about the release :

This program is the intro of Poong, our next game.
This is a Falcon product, for trying you must have
- 1 Falcon (That's better !)
- 2 Meg of ram (I think ?!?)
- a RVB screen (No Vga init for the moment !)
- a enough big screen coz 640*250 resol !!
This is only the intro for letting you waiting until the game will be finished. The music used in this one, is only here for trying the soundtracker routine (Dnt-Crew), it was taken from the Fading Twilight (Tscc) compilation.
Enjoy or lame !!!
The Cerebral Vortex team.....

Well, we have been kicked in the teeth lately, but now we're back with a vengeance. We have had the opportunity to interview Brian Watson. Brian converted such classics as Lemmings and Menace for the Atari ST. Go to the [url=../interviews/interview.php?interview_id=18]interview section[/url] to read it all!

Enjoy!
