Interview with Brian Watson

September 28, 2004 by ST Graveyard

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!

We are back!

September 27, 2004 by ST Graveyard

Hello everybody,

It seems we are finally back online. We still don't really know what has happened, but it seems that 2 weeks ago, a complaint had been filed against this website, for reasons still unknown to us. Our best guess would be the downloads. That's why the game downloads are not available (for the time being), till this matter is settled. From now on, we might only add those games for download, for which we have been given permission by the lawful owner. But we still need to figure it all out.

To everybody out there. It was never our intention to offend nor displease anybody with our content. We have been working on this site for years, and it has become a labor of love, a site for fanatics, by fanatics of this classic computer.

So please, if there are still people out there who disagree with the content, let us know, don't leave us in the dark. Contact us, use our [url=../contact/contact.php]Contact[/url] page. Or use the forum to let us know.

On a brighter note, now that we're back, we have some goodies for you guys in store. But it'll have to wait for now.

Again, sorry for a the trouble ... Sorry for the downtime.

Cheers

Not so limited demo

September 13, 2004 by Brume

News illustration image Paulo Simoes, the man behind the Overscan Demos, brings us a new screen for any ST. The Limited demo features 500 sprites (composed with 16x16 pixels on 3 bitplanes) moving on a background of 3 bitplanes. The demo may be a wink to the new Leonard contest.

Enjoy the Limited demo by LJBK (aka Paulo Simoes).

Random review

The release of Titus the Fox is also a bit of a confusing one. I remember my friend, who had a 386 PC back in the day, coming up to me during lunchbreak at school, telling me about this new cool platformer he acquired called Moktar. I never heard of it, but decided that, after schoolbell rings, I would go check it out at his home. When I saw the game, I couldn't believe my eyes. This was exactly like the screenshots of Titus the Fox I saw in my magazine. Even the title screen was completely the same apart from the depiction of the main character. And it was kinda fun to play as well...even on a PC ... without soundblaster ... and with keyboard (for crying out loud).

Did you know?

The Atari symbol is known as the "Fuji" because of its resemblance to Mt. Fuji.
