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 And second - The content management system running Atari Gamer is out of date and Google AppEngine (where the website runs) will no longer allow it to run after the 30th January 2024, so in order to preserve all content we switched to a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.
Snowball is a 1v1 snowball fight game created for the LynXmas 2020 game jam.
Game play🕸
The goal of the game is to get the highest score possible while trying to avoid the enemy snowballs. Points are earned by hitting the enemy with a snowball. Each time the player is hit they loose one life. After 5 hits the game is over. The high score will be tracked throughout the play session. Try and beat your own record!
Controls🕸
