Random review Time Bandit

1986


Many people believe that Time Bandit is a "Gauntlet" clone; they´re wrong. In fact, the first version of Time Bandit was released in 1983, while Atari introduced the original arcade version of Gauntlet in 1985.

A chat with visual story teller Darren Doyle

December 9, 2019 by ST Graveyard
I have been a long time fan of Darren Doyle. This scener is responsible for the amazing Atari ST Gamer magazine and the Atari Crypt magazine. I love his visual style, which reminds me of the good ol' days of computer magazines. A few weeks ago the result of his succesfull Kickstarter, the book Atari : A Visual History, was brought to my door by the postman. What an amazing treat. Enjoy this indepth interview in which Darren talks about his experiences in starting a publishing company for books and retro games.

We talk to Karl Morris - Author of 'We Love Atari'

November 30, 2019 by ST Graveyard
Last week a nice package came in the mail. Finally, the 2 volumes of We Love Atari made it to my doorstep. These books by Karl Morris ooze passion and a true love for Atari. I was so impressed by the depth and amount of historical detail found in these books, I just had to contact Karl for an interview to find out how it all started.

Up close with chiptuner Dma-Sc

October 16, 2019 by ST Graveyard
Dma-Sc is a nick that regularly pops up in the scene. In real life, this chip musician goes by the name of Mathieu Stempell. I met Mathieu at the STNICCC party in 2015 and while he is one of the most important Atari ST chiptuners of the past years, he has such a nice and down to earth personality. Check out the interview to learn more about his past and his future plans.

Creating Wolf3D - Ray shares all the details

October 2, 2019 by ST Graveyard
Ray seems to be one of those guys who have done the impossible. In his case, it was converting the amazing id Software classic Wolfenstein 3D to the Atari ST. Everybody who has played this version on his humble ST will agree with me. And we had the chance to talk to the scener who is responsible for one of the coolest accomplishments in Atari ST gaming history.

Synthwave alert - An interview with Stefan Benz / Lotek Style

September 17, 2019 by ST Graveyard
If there is one man who has done his share of contributions to the Atari ST scene, it must be Stefan Benz. He is the founder of projects like Fading Twilight and Fujiology, main Atari ST archivist at demozoo.org, full time YM Rocker and member of The Sirius Cybernetics Corporation.

Box scanning and buying originals!

September 13, 2019 by Marcer
In the last few months, I was lucky enough to borrow Krilar's complete originals collection, for dumping and box-scanning.

Now he has got into dumping and scanning too and he has supplied his own preservation dumps too. Many thanks mate!!

Live And Let Die

January 13, 2019 by ST Graveyard
Now all of this might sound a bit much, but that really is not the biggest problem with Live and Let Die. In Buggy Boy you had checkpoints to reach in time. In this game, they have taken it all a step further...or maybe better, a whole leap further. You see, you run out of fuel when moving forward. And you run out of it fast, way fast. To solve this problem, fuel pods are scattered all over the waterway. Grab them, and you win yourself some time. Miss them and run out of fuel and guess what ... YOU EXPLODE!

Lethal Weapon

December 28, 2018 by ST Graveyard
I don't know what it is exactly, but for a lot of us 80' kids, the Christmas holidays are in some strange way connected with Hollywood action films. During the 'most wonderful time of the year', I never watch any Santa Claus movies, no, I'm looking for stuff like Die Hard, or Gremlins. It is becoming a strange cliché, but I love it. And I'm not the only one. Kim Justice just did a great youtube video on the subject and he inspired me to do this review.

Frogs

December 4, 2018 by ST Graveyard
Frogs is made for multi-player madness. There is no real level system in the game, you may select whatever option or screen you like from the start. And while the game is nice as a 1 player game, it gets a bit boring rather quickly. The AI is splendid, a great accomplishment for Thomas, I'm sure. Still, maybe some kind of mission system or goal could have solved this. But in the end, that is NOT the point AT ALL.

WHO IS IT?

Interview
Random Interview Eric Safar

In the 80s, France produced a huge number of games for the Atari ST, some pretty mediocre, others very successful. Eric Safar's games belong to the second category. Eric participated in titles such as Ranx or Les Portes du Temps on the Atari, before going to Cryo to work on MegaRace... But he's also the author of an adventure game that became a real hit: Atlantis. Today, Eric is still passionate and continues to develop games for our old machines. After releasing Athanor 1 a few years ago for 8 bit machines, he is about to release Athanor 2 on the Atari ST. Let's give him the chance to tell us his story in great detail. Be ready for one of the most captivating interviews on this site!
