Do you remember your first girlf...?
Computer, I mean COMPUTER!
Mine was the good old C64. I still have it, over 40 years later... what a journey.
Your turn.
Finishing the 2nd PCBA after a short break to move my lab to a new, more spacious location. Thank you all for your patience.
Work resumes at an accelerated pace. 👋🏽🔥
One of my all-time favourite games from back in the day was Super Cars II (1991), developed by Magnetic Fields and published by Gremlin Graphics.
The intro and cutscenes always reminded me a bit of the Cinemaware style - great pixel graphics and an epic soundtrack (perfect for a racing game and masterfully done by the legendary Barry Leitch).
Buying upgrades like Nitro, Armor, Rockets and Mines added a strategic element; the later stages with tougher opponents really required those boosts to stand a chance.
Great humour too, with the TV crew and the names of other drivers (hello there, Alain Phosphate!) - and last but not least, a superb two-player split-screen mode. The battles with my friends are still stuck in my mind. This always felt like a game perfectly suited for the Amiga.
I've done a thing. Now, please don't expect anything glossy! But here is a PDF with a load of #AtariST hints, cheats, and codes for LOADS OF GAMES!! ataricrypt.blogspot.com/2026/03/st-che…
Let me know if you downloaded it :)
As a very genuine lover of retro games and games in general, I advocate we self curate a bit on socials.
Way too much spam
