Before MD/DOOM and Flashback, I wanted to see how far I could push on-screen colours on #AtariST and created experiments to switch palette 1, 2 and 3 times per row (48 x 200 = 9,600 colour options). Doesn't work for games, but looks great static, so thought I'd share the code in case it's useful to anyone: github.com/neilrackett/atari…

@AtariCrypt was kind enough to interview me about my early years working on the AtariST. I’m really, really pleased how the interview turned out. Thanks Steve! ataricrypt.blogspot.com/2025…

Here's another cool one: Uridium with blitter and sound. I added to it by sampling the C64 sound track to play during the game: atariage.com/forums/topic/31…

WIP #AtariSTE Power Drift engine: I'm currently adding support for elevated sections of track. The video shows a figure-of-8 shaped track that passes over itself. Further work needed to tilt the camera up and down to get the most out of these elevation changes. 🏎️🏎️🏎️
