Atari Scene NewsThere are two projects to port Doom on <a href="https://mastodon.world/tags/AtariST" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#AtariST</a> computers. First one runs on standard Atari ST but at the moment it needs accelerated Hatari emulator. Second one needs AtariSTE with STE536 board (Motorola 68030 50MHz + TT RAM): <a href="https://youtu.be/RyNfRBr9SKI" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://youtu.be/RyNfRBr9SKI</a> <a href="https://mastodon.world/tags/atari" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#atari</a> <a href="https://mastodon.world/tags/retrogames" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#retrogames</a> <a href="https://mastodon.world/tags/doom" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#doom</a>

EntikanI created another game, this time for the <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/atari" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#atari</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/irebel" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#irebel</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/gamejam" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#gamejam</a> called DECAGONISM. It's a hypnotic game that tries to hypnotise you into becoming a <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/lobster" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#lobster</a>. The number 10 is a big deal. There's a chance my hero <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/jeffminter" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#jeffminter</a> himself will play it so fingers crossed.You can download it for free here: <a href="https://entikan.itch.io/decagonism" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://entikan.itch.io/decagonism</a>

penworksRemembering the magic of Atari 1040, running Steinberg 24 and using a bw Ferguson portable TV as a monitor. Mine had a 2mb ram upgrade!I don't even know what happened to it.

ResearchBuzz: FirehoseTechSpot: The Atari ST was eight years too early for Doom, but not anymore. “The list of improbable devices running the iconic first-person shooter Doom continues to grow. Although porting it to a PC released in 1985, eight years before Doom, might seem tame compared to running it on a Lego brick or inside a QR code, the in-development Atari ST conversion shows impressive dedication.”<a href="https://rbfirehose.com/2025/04/29/techspot-the-atari-st-was-eight-years-too-early-for-doom-but-not-anymore/" class="" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://rbfirehose.com/2025/04/29/techspot-the-atari-st-was-eight-years-too-early-for-doom-but-not-anymore/</a>

Digital Mark λ ☕️ 🕹 🙄I found the note I left myself from just waking up:Dreamed I was back in the '80s, writing a Gopher/Markdown-like system on the Atari 8-bit, with the line-oriented editor I wrote on TRS-80, not MEDIT. I was explaining heading levels to someone, and drawing ATASCII banner art for h1, inverse for h2, etc.This wouldn't be too hard to really do (but really, use MEDIT).
