Atari-forum Demo first screen!

April 30, 2004 by Brume

News illustration image We have received an impressive screen from sceners: a beautiful screen coded by Tobe (also author of Roger), painted by C-Rem (talented gfx-man from MJJ-Prod) and tuned by 505 (famous composer from Checkpoint)! This screen displays 128 colors and was fully coded in GFA Basic.Indeed! It's named Tribute to Rainbow Tos because Atari-forum logo uses cycled colors, similar to the logo that appears on TOS 1.62 (but far better). We weren't able to resist to post this shot, even though we shouldn't.

The screen will be included into the Atari-forum Demo. Deadline for contributions is May 1st 2004. See this topic for more details.

Random review

And oh boy, you WILL need skill and luck! You control the speedboat using the joystick, use the fire button for the machine gun and the ALT key for missiles. Right from the start you will notice there is A LOT going on in this game. The waterway is just filled with obstacles like rocks, mines and logs. Apart from this, we have enemy boats, rocket-firing turrets on the side and bullet-spewing planes in the sky. If you hit a rock or mine, you explode. If you collide with an enemy boat, you explode. If you get hit by incoming fire, you explode...
