MandelST is a fractal generator developed in GFA Basic by Manos Kantzos (thanks to GeoAnas for the heads-up). I love messing about with funky fractals, and this program is a cinch to use, which is ace!
Mandelbrot/Julia productions can be generated within moments, but faster computers will benefit from that extra grunt. Of course, emulators are an excellent idea, unless you prefer leaving your ST on for long periods. Images can be exported as Degas PI1 or TIFF. Also, basic animations are possible, and these take us deep into an infinite mathematical world like nothing I've seen before. A stunning idea with great potential.
I've enjoyed creating peculiar images and animations, and I'm quite proud of them. Also, it's fantastic to see something new being developed for the Atari ST, so I'm hoping Manos continues on and improves his work in the future. This is a great program, so have yourself some geeky fun zooming in on infinite!!
Do you remember the excitement when Lupo Alberto was released back in 2015? Well, today I've taken another look because I was contacted by Luca Stradiotto, who supplied a cheat code that enabled me to get further into this *difficult* game. Otherwise, I'd have never stood a chance, not with my skills lol
Lupo Alberto looks and sounds great, but that push scrolling sure lets it down, especially when killed by something off-screen! But it's still great, and the two-player co-op is a fantastic feature to change characters. Overall, it's a shame that this was never released because I have enjoyed playing it a bunch!
It's silly (and a bit buggy), but it's worth downloading!!
