I have been actively avoiding all things Atari to recharge a little bit,
but I just started to read the list again.
As for Sniper, it has been on hold for a long time. I am thinking of
incorporating it into my upcoming game called "Tree Hugger." Tree
Hugger is a multi-screen game with different extremely un-PC
(politically correct) goals. So, Sniper will probably be converted to
"Whale Sport," the first-person harpooning screen. :>
I will be posting some demos of the first screen, "Pave the Greenbelt,"
in a week or two.
Cheers!

Hi there!
It's been a long time, since I did that last time.
But right now a certain curiosity hit me :-)
First:
There' a few active projects here right now, that get
regular updates, but there's a bunch of others I'd just
like to know their current status:
Here's a selection of dead(?) projects grabbed from
Atari Age:
A-VCS-tec Challenge
Cyclostar
Laseresal 2002
Poker Squares
Radial Pong
Rainbow Invaders
Sniper
The Ravenous Dead
Or am I wrong on any?
Then there was these cool demos called "plane" posted to
the list from Gonzalo Fernández a while ago. Any
progress here?
Second:
As said in the title, I'd like to know what else is
cooking, please report!
I'll volunteer to start:
My next project after Star Fire will be a port of "Sword
of Fargoal". I already started porting it to 5200BAS,
but the final target will certainly be the 2600. I'm
planing on using both a keypad and a joystick controler
combined for it and I hope to get all features of the
original transfered. While technically not setting new
standarts, I didn't want to do the third kill-o-zap game
in series and I hope to be able to achieve a never
before seen depth of gameplay for 2600 adventure/rpg
games.
Now tell me yours! :-)
Greetings,
Manuel
