Nintendo had "Mario", Sega had "Sonic", why couldn't we have such quality platformers for the ST? Well, we had...The Bitmap Brothers made some great games ("Gods", "Magic Pockets"
but that was about it. Until in 1992, Graftgold released "Fire and Ice".

While creating the Starball, console quality pinball on the Atari ST - Full history - Dave & Andy - Volume 11 Software video together with Dave & Andy, this article , originally written for Way Of The Rodent in 2011, was handed to me by Dave. This contains a wealth of information, a development diary on the creation of Starball, and so much more, that just can't get lost in time. So it is now available here. Enjoy.

My Dream Atari STe is a mix of the system I bought at the age of 14 combined with what is possible today. Back in the day, I had an ATARI 1040 STe with a SC1224 color monitor, a cover and a mouse, as well as various joysticks - and that was about it.
I do not know the exact price, but at that time it was around 2000 DM in Germany ($1200). All my pocket money and more went into it! Unfortunately, I sold everything. The only thing left is the Turrican II disk - my favorite game back then.April 27, 2018 by ST Graveyard Restoration
There has been so much debate on the internet in the past 10 years regarding retrobrite. I have been having mixed feelings about the subject ever since I have learned of its existence. The success stories on youtube do look beautiful. But the horror movies posted by some people who got their precious hardware back all messed up, the resurfacing of the yellowing after a period of time, the fact if it actually harms the plastic or not. All these things caused so much controversy. But after reading and discussing about it for years, I finally gave in to the temptation. I knew exactly which technique I wanted to try out, and I'm so glad I did. I had the perfect victim in sight for the project. So if you want to learn a bit more about retrobriting your precious ST, come along and follow my first adventures in restoration. Not just any project, a double dose as I will be bringing back 2 STf computers to life.January 21, 2018 by muguk Memories
