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 And second - The content management system running Atari Gamer is out of date and Google AppEngine (where the website runs) will no longer allow it to run after the 30th January 2024, so in order to preserve all content we switched to a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.
Patrons want to get custom ties. You'll have to cut them perfect-sized ones!
Growing Ties is a game requiring both an excellent eye and a good hand dexterity.My current highscore on level 9 is 327 - can you beat it?

Press A to grow a tie.
Press B to cut it.
The tie will fall down, and hopefully reach a patron.
Be careful to cut right-sized ties!
You'll get 10 points for a perfectly fitting tie, but less points if it's too long or too short.
A perfect sized tie matches the height of the patron's shirt exactly.
As the levels go along, you'll discover more mechanics explained in the game: combo system, modifying tie colors, limited tie supply, limited time, etc.
This game was submitted as an entry into the Atari Lynx 30th Birthday Programming Competition.
