A game I discovered on a coverdisk, but never got around to trying out. Let’s rectify that!

Today we are having a look at a game that has been recommended to me a lot over the years: Resolution 101. Is it as good as those people say? Let’s find out!

Let’s have a look at another conversion of an arcade shooter. This time it’s Midnight Resistance. I really enjoyed this as a kid, but cheated terribly. Does it still hold up?

This is a sneakily addictive game! The video could have ran on to hours and hours, but luckily I glanced down at the record time! Yet another game new to me that I regret not picking up sooner!

Time for another pleasant surprise! This is the first time I’ve played ST Dragon and it’s pretty decent:

I’m playing this as part of the Atari-Forum STOT tournament. Tons of fun!

A Brand New ST Game! :O

I was surprised to learn that this game isn’t an arcade conversion. It does borrow an awful lot from the City Connection arcade by Jaleco, but it’s still a solid, quirky #AtariST platformer.

Footy tier list!
