I'm probably the only one that cares but I figure why not have a thread dedicated to Atari? Not the current Atari Corp which is busy throwing their excrement on a wall and seeing how long it sticks but the Bushnell/Warner/Tramiel eras.
One of my favorite Atari arcade games:
Now for some homebrews
Atari 2600:
Zippy the Porcupine, a recent homebrew that is bringing a Sonic-like to the 2600
Atari 5200:
there are not many reasons to have a 5200 but there is Adventure II
Atari 7800:
Sirius, a psuedo-released game. Went unreleased in 1990 but was finished; discovered years later and some repros have been made from the bins of this and another shooter called Plutos
Atari XEGS
Aside from the 2600 the "8-bit PCs" have to have the most vibrant developments still happening for these old systems. Here is Ridiculous Reality, which is free. Most everything released for the XL/XE is free actually
Atari Lynx:
Atari Jaguar:
Could use a little more polish (in-game music, better select screens and transitions, maybe networking) but this is 'tube'
