Race Drivin'


Lots of games have cool intros but Domark's Race Drivin' must surely rank high as one of the best? It may only last a minute or so but it's a zany mix of Wacky Races and a dollop of Carmageddon thrown in for good measure. A brilliant intro for what is one of the toughest racers - can you drive in a straight line? Well, I know I can't!! O_o

8BitChip has the hard disk installable game and Stonish has the floppy disk Sigma #1.

The History of ULM




U..L..M..!!

I saw a stupid tweet the other day about the Atari ST demoscene by someone who is obviously an Amoeba user. Rather than rise to the bait, it inspired me to write this quick piece. Besides, we know the ST has a belting scene that is alive & kicking! (View recent masterpieces like We Were @ + Strange roboTS). Powerful STuff!!

Additionally, there is a web page by Georges Kesseler of ULM. It details his interesting ST-history, which I thought was pure gold. I wonder if it was originally part of an older website? An intriguing read of great ST devs.
