| #125: 10 Good “Euro” Action Platformers for the Atari ST | 14 Oct 2024 | 00:17:02 | |
(Including Sun Su Si and First Samurai)
Join us as we take a look at 10 good #actionplatformer games for the #atarist we also briefly discuss them for the #amiga and otjer 80s computers such as the #c64 and #pc I have chosen the #Atari ST as my platform because it was what I had from 1987 until 1992 and also because these games have most likely been explored in detail for other systems multiple times already, whereas the ST versions probably have not been explored as much as they deserve outside of the few good ST youtube channels that do a great job of covering games for the system.

| 124: 10 Mid-80’s “Euro” Action Platformers on the Atari ST (and other 80’s computers) | 01 Oct 2024 | 00:22:03 | |
#atari #atarst #actionplatformer #amiga #msx #c64 #speccy #amstradcpc #dos The Euro Platformer. Today the term is used with much derision, mostly by console game fans but even by some many 80’s computer games, and well now, now even by me, and we all probably should know better, or should we? Yes, these games had very high difficulty, cheap deaths, a lot of jumping to unknown places and mostly “bad game design” that would have the Retronaughts guys throwing up their arms in disgust. I’m picking to play these on the Atari ST because it's the machine I had and loved but also because it bridged the gap in many ways between the 8bit era and the full 16-bit era with its colorful graphics but decidedly 8-bit sound. The ST was a machine built for 1985 with very little concern about what would come next. Sometimes I jokingly call the games of this time the forgotten 12-bit era. I will note, and briefly discuss these games, if available, on other systems, because you really should check them out on the machine of your choice, but the ST versions are the ones we will be looking it today in 10 Mid-80’s “Euro” Action Platformers on the Atari ST (and other 80’s computers) Late night fuel support appreciated but not demanded : https://www.buymeacoffee.com/intotheverticalblank Thanks for support from: BCB, Atari Legend, Atari Crypt, ED Possible, Tony Longworth Daniel Beasley, Barry Burkey David Schmidt, Jolt7800 Dave theVelociraptor All music, audio / video production. writing and game play by #JeffFulton and or #SteveFulton unless otherwise noted.

| #100: Atari ST LOG Magazine #2 May 1986: An Action RPG Point and Click and More | 14 Jan 2024 | 00:13:38 | |
The history of the Atari ST in the USA #1. Video Version https://youtu.be/xxe4cV1eydY?si=0b6_K1s-Y7sLDf0s We continue taking a look at Atari after the Warner Sale specifically focusing on ST Log magazine which is still an insert into American Atari 8bit Computer Magazine, Analog at this point in history. Our focus is the ST and as entertainment machine, but it was such a great general purpose computer that we will stop along the way to look at some of the more interesting applications especially if they have an entertainment focus or if we used the applications when we had an ST in the 80’s and early 90’s while stopping briefly to look at some of the more interesting magazine articles. Let’s get started. Notes: http://www.atarimania.com/atari-magazine-st-log_83.html

| #97 : Punker Pacman And The Mindless Generation | 06 Dec 2023 | 00:18:51 | |
In 1982 I was enthralled with Pac-Man. A Pee-Chee folder I found in box 40 years later remined me of that time: when anything, even growing-up and working for Atari, seemed possible. Original story published in the Easy Reader as "Punker Pac-Man: An ode to the Mindless Generation, and The Guild Drug" - Easy Reader News: https://easyreadernews.com/punker-pac-man-an-ode-to-the-mindless-generation-and-the-guild-drug/?fbclid=IwAR2Q2-1ytOUrMPfa2HQIwfMTABCGzPIuEdV47X84SID6p-zmCm0hHGY-sAo Special thanks to Manhattan Beach Historical Society: https://www.manhattanbeachhistorical.com/ All music, video production. writing and game play by #JeffFulton and or #SteveFulton unless otherwise noted.

#123: Atari I.P List Found! 23 Atari ST Games They Own! We scour Atari's 2024 IP list (we were altered to it last week by BCB Coffee Boy last week) and discover 23 Atari ST games Atari (probably) owns that could be put into a game pack, DLC for Atari 50, an Atari ST mini, etc. We played (almost) all of them (game play video included). Note: list was first published by PowerDubs on atariage.com who found it on Atari's home page:

In this series we will be going through the American History of the #Atari ST by focusing on the #STLog magazine, which started as a insert in the Atari 8bit magazine, #Analog, and then became its own animal for a number of years only to be incorporated back into Analog magazine as Atari focused its efforts on videos games systems and the European market.

| S6:E9 Lost Credit (part 2): The Secret Atari Heroes of GCC | 01 Oct 2023 | 00:40:12 | |
Lost Credit: The Secret Atari Heroes of GCC (part1) Part 2 of the story: GCC were masters of video game design in the early 1980's. They created Ms. Pac-Man and went on to become a "secret" development house for Atari. They are responsible for many golden age Atari games, but so far, the credits for their games have been incomplete and hard to locate. After working for 5 years, Into The Vertical Blank may have finally "cracked the code" on the credits for GCC Atari games by pestering and annoying ex-GCCers Doug Macrae, Michael Feinstein, Steve Golson and Jonathan Hurd until they finally put pen to paper, researched, reached out to fellow ex-employees, and put together a definitive list of credits. This is part 1 of that story. Features brand-new interview Doug Macrae, co-founder of GCC.

| S6:E8:Goth and Leong Atari ST Bedroom Coding Heroes | 27 Sep 2023 | 00:34:09 | |
S6:E8:Goth and Leong Atari ST Bedroom Coding Heroes Gary “Goth” Wheaton and Robert Leong are two of the more unsung heroes of the Atari SY Bedroom Game coding Underground. In this episode we take a well deserved if all too brief look at some of their combined and separate efforts.
What follows is an audio edited version of the first three videos of the Bedroom Coded classics series, focusing on Robert Leong and Gary Goth Wheaton. It’s hardly exhaustive, and there is much more to explore, especially from Gary, but I think it’s a great introduction to a scene that has not been explored much previously.

They discuss everything about growing up in Generation Atari from the 2600 to the Atari 8bit Computers, through the ST and beyond. We apologize for the echo in the interview section, it was conducted in Jeff’s living room and was uncontrollable. We have “dried” it up as much as we can.

What compels someone to finish a computer game after more than three decades of first trying? The Lost Dutchman Mine for the Atari ST is such a game for me.

| S5:E6: Atari ST Halcyon Days of 1989 Part 3: Atari ST Gaming Gems | 25 Sep 2022 | 01:15:39 | |
S5:e6 Atari ST Halcyon Days of 1989 Part 3: Atari ST Gaming Gems Our favorite 1989 Console Style Games for the ST We had an ST when most of the other kids near us had various consoles. We knew our machine could play superior RPGs, Simulations, and Adventure titles, but how did it hold up against the 8 and 16 bit console games of the day? To make these lists we played every single game that has a 1989 release date in Atari Mania’s database, and ranked them based on Sound, Graphics, Game Play and Addictiveness, usings scores of 1-10, then averaged those scores to come up with a rating. The following list is how the numbers worked out for a top 10. It’s all subjective + math, but we did play all of the games from the year to be certain we were ranking them against their contemporary competition.

A wonderous place where Bank Street Writer and Sands of Egypt were loaded from 5 1/4 inch floppy disks, LOGO and BASIC were viable programming options, and where kids like us could find a place of our own.

| #121 : Worse Than E.T.? Marauder For the Atari 2600 | 03 Sep 2024 | 00:10:11 | |
Why do people subjectively choose one game or another to top their "worst" list? It's rarely actually the "worst" game objectively. In this episode I explore why one particular game has topped my own "worst" list for 4 decades, and if that is still the case in 2024.
