Argon is now in Open Testing/Early Beta on Google Play

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 And second - The content management system running Atari Gamer is out of date and Google AppEngine (where the website runs) will no longer allow it to run after the 30th January 2024, so in order to preserve all content we switched to a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.

We've been following Project Argon closely here at Atari Gamer, and of course, Mark/Space (the developer) has worked with us on a number of our programming competitions in the past two years. We're very excited to see this project coming to fruition now. It's great seeing Lynx games being available on many other platforms as a result of this work. Here's official word from Mark/Space...

This is the first Beta release of Argon, and we know we’ve still got a way to go.

We have some clear goals for improvement between now and launch:

Improving user account functionality

Expanding our included game library

Refining and improving our user interface and user experience

Implementing subscription plansWe’ll be looking closely at your feedback to make sure that Argon is the best it can be!

We’ll also be expanding the beta to Amazon devices and Raspberry Pi after we’ve collected the feedback we need from the Android version.

And, of course, we’d love to try and squeeze a few more classic consoles into Argon before launch… so stay tuned!
