What's with the influx of Atari ST postings lately? I'm surely enjoying it!<p>Can EstyJS run in monochrome (640 x 400) mode? There were some great games in b&w, like Bolo and Oxyd [0] by Meinolf Amekudzi.<p>I remember studying the 'Hitchhikers Guide to the BIOS' [1], which was the only piece of documentation I initially had for the ST when it had just come out. If I'm not mistaken, it did ship with a C compiler and assembler.<p>[0] <a href="https://www.atariuptodate.de/en/authors/meinolf-amekudzi-1044/" rel="nofollow">https://www.atariuptodate.de/en/authors/meinolf-amekudzi-104...</a><p>[1] <a href="https://archive.org/details/rearc_atari-st-e-tt-toolkit-b1-30-a-hitchhikers-guide-to-the-bios-1990-03-05/mode/2up" rel="nofollow">https://archive.org/details/rearc_atari-st-e-tt-toolkit-b1-3...</a>
Oh the ST... :-)<p>Back in school in 1994 I was into DOS. But my friend insisted the ST was superior in every way.
We wrote assembly games to impress eachother.<p>One day he told me he was working for a company making games.<p>I didn't really believe him back then.<p>Turns out the company in question was UDS (Unique Development Systems) and he was in fact making games for the ST.<p>We were 14 years old.
I have been told Revenge of the Mutant Camels is a cult classic worth experiencing: <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Cqt86q2PIxQ" rel="nofollow">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Cqt86q2PIxQ</a>
Within seconds I found GFA basic (which I spent endless time programming in as a kid), and got it running. Unfortunately, I can't figure out how type an "=" (equals) character from my Mac laptop.
I feel like it's a festival of emulators these days. Or maybe that thing is happening where some new thing clicks into sharper focus for you, and then suddenly you see it everywhere. What was the name of that phenomenen, I feel I saw it on here at some stage...
Can it run Cubase?<p><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OlspnqVcJho" rel="nofollow">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OlspnqVcJho</a>
