+davidcalgary29 Posted December 31, 2018 Share Posted December 31, 2018 Love the article, but your stealth propaganda still isnt enough to make me want to play Pit Fighter again. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lost Dragon Posted December 31, 2018 Share Posted December 31, 2018 Love the article, but your stealth propaganda still isnt enough to make me want to play Pit Fighter again. I second that Great new take, but even it wasn't enough to think, hmnnnnnn. ..maybe i really should give Pitfighter another shot Happy new year to all the Atari community. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Igor Posted January 1, 2019 Author Share Posted January 1, 2019 Haha thanks, no propaganda intended. I did play the game after reading the draft though and found it was not as terrible as I once remembered. Maybe Jon can write similar articles about some other games in the future. Happy New Year! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Igor Posted January 7, 2019 Author Share Posted January 7, 2019 What do you do if you have a dead Lynx I console? Reuse its shell and fit it out with a Raspberry Pi Zero of course! ? https://atarigamer.com/articles/lynx-pi---an-new-life-for-a-dead-atari-lynx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bdoi Posted January 7, 2019 Share Posted January 7, 2019 Looks so cool. Can I ask how much did you pay for this wonderful mother board? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turbo Laser Lynx Posted January 7, 2019 Share Posted January 7, 2019 It's a beatiful board, hopefully it will become available for everyone! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Igor Posted January 8, 2019 Author Share Posted January 8, 2019 Looks so cool. Can I ask how much did you pay for this wonderful mother board? The price was 10EUR plus shipping. Quite cheap really. It's a beatiful board, hopefully it will become available for everyone! It is already, you just have to contact the guy to order one. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+davidcalgary29 Posted January 8, 2019 Share Posted January 8, 2019 Looking forward to that article with a step-by-step guide. All my Lynxes, however, still work... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Igor Posted January 9, 2019 Author Share Posted January 9, 2019 That's my dilemma too, but I've been looking to take a Lynx apart to have easy access to its internals for some time now. This way I can both do this projects by reusing the case and at the same time have all the working Lynx hardware at my fingertips. It will be a couple of months before I get around to this though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Igor Posted January 15, 2019 Author Share Posted January 15, 2019 Many games have unsavoury moments, Atari Lynx is really on the light side of how foul it can get, but here are some of these. Have you got a favourite gross-out moment on the Lynx? https://atarigamer.com/articles/top-5-foul-moments-in-atari-lynx-games Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+davidcalgary29 Posted January 18, 2019 Share Posted January 18, 2019 Oh, no you dont! Festors are awesome and totally make the Lynx port the amazing thing it is. Please see the 7800 and XE ports for the sad thing that is Xenophobe without Festors. Ooh, you forgot the end boss in Gates of Zendocon...and those flying sucking sausage/sex toy thingies. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Igor Posted January 18, 2019 Author Share Posted January 18, 2019 Haha good point on GoZ, I don't think that's Jon's favourite game though. Speaking of GoZ, I'll have something cool around it soon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Igor Posted January 21, 2019 Author Share Posted January 21, 2019 Gates of Zendocon is an amazing game with many levels. Here's how they are all connected and how to get between them - https://atarigamer.com/articles/gates-of-zendocon-universe-map 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Igor Posted January 21, 2019 Author Share Posted January 21, 2019 You should draw out the Wyvern Tales map 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Igor Posted January 28, 2019 Author Share Posted January 28, 2019 It's 2019 so time for an updated top games article! Here's the Top 30 Games in 2019 from Jon Mc https://atarigamer.com/articles/top-30-atari-lynx-games-in-2019-by-jon-mc What's your favourite Atari Lynx game? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
enthusi Posted January 28, 2019 Share Posted January 28, 2019 You should draw out the Wyvern Tales map I actually did (in parts The first game that made me want to do that in ages. Is WT missing in your top30? My Top30 certainly would have included it (as usual a matter of taste for sure). 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+karri Posted January 28, 2019 Share Posted January 28, 2019 WT is cozy RPG. No tedious mapping. Even the mazes and the tower is easy to memorize. One of the few games I have completed more than once. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
enthusi Posted January 28, 2019 Share Posted January 28, 2019 Yes, rather straight layout but you only know that for sure 'afterwards' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
