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 And second - The content management system running Atari Gamer is out of date and Google AppEngine (where the website runs) will no longer allow it to run after the 30th January 2024, so in order to preserve all content we switched to a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.
We've announced this year's Lynx Programming Competition not long ago. We've now finished putting together our list of sponsors and prizes and are ready to kick things off formally. We welcome both Atari Age and Mark/Space on board!
The prizes have been updated too. The top 3 placing games will each receive a copy of the RetroHQ Lynx Game Drive cartridge and will be offered the chance to have their game published in physical form by Atari Age (with 5 free copies of your game), as well as in digital form by Mark/Space. In addition - the 1st place winner will get a $150USD cash prize, and the 2nd place winner will receive $100USD.
So get ready, and join the competition over at itch.io.
