Your #1 source for Atari Lynx news and information!

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 And second - The content management system running Atari Gamer is out of date and Google AppEngine (where the website runs) will no longer allow it to run after the 30th January 2024, so in order to preserve all content we switched to a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

  3. Xump 2 - Back to Space final version released free for Atari Lynx

Xump 2 was the winning entry of the Lynx 2020 Programming Competition and now it's been polished off and coding has finished. The game is released free of charge as a ROM over the the Retroguru website (direct download link).

Here's the announcement from Retroguru...

Atari's Lynx handheld has been released in the EU in 1990. Now we do have 2021 and it's time for Xump 2 to be on #Atari #Lynx in it's final release (unless you find bugs). The #game #ROM is #free! Simply help Misuki to clean up deserted space fields. If you would be interested to get your hands on a physical release, please let us know so we may prepare one.

This game would have been not possible without:

  • Code: Gisberto Rondinella (nop90)
  • Graphics, Character Design: Christian Damm (Ragnarok)
  • Character Design: Christian Hildenbrand (Daydream)
  • Graphics Downgrade: Jonathan Dodd (Dulcahn)

  • Beta-Test, Trailer: Denny Müller (Mulle)
  • Poster Design: Esraa Alesber (Amaya)

Thanks everyone involved in the project. Marvelous job!
