We are moving all Atari Lynx related content over to Atari Lynx Vault and all our shop content over to K-Retro Gaming. Please update your bookmarks!
As a result of this change, the following will no longer be available: Online Lynx Emulator, Collection Tracker, Game Ratings, News. If you are interested in contributing content to Atari Lynx Vault, we are seeking editors and maintainers.
Why is this happening? First - the Atari Gamer branding is changing to K-Retro Gaming to allow us to expand to providing games, replacement parts, and mod services to other game consoles. And second - The content management system running Atari Gamer is out of date and Google AppEngine (where the website runs) will no longer allow it to run after the 30th January 2024, so in order to preserve all content we switched to a new and modern content management system and chose a website domain that better suits the subject matter. Since we are operating this website in our spare time, on top of full time family and job committments, some features had to be dropped.
BMX Map🕸
See the entire BMX track in one image or chopped up into smaller to digest sections here - California Games BMX Map
Rescale Screen🕸
Press Option 2 while skating in the half pipe to rescale the screen.
Pelican Ride🕸
In the surfing event, run your last surfer towards the bottom of the screen during the last few seconds of game play. Your surfer will land on the pelican that flies across the screen.
Clear BMX path🕸
Position the bike about 1 pixel above where the grass meets the dirt to have a completely clear path, free of obstacles, all the way through.
Faster Footbag Spins🕸
To spin faster than normal in the footbag event, jump, then hit the footbag with your head, then immediately do a spin.
Four Player Game🕸
A four-player game is possible using ComLynx cables, however, it may take a number of attempts before a successful connection is made. Game play will also be slower than usual.
