Greyfox Posted September 13, 2014 Author Share Posted September 13, 2014 (edited) A very cool video has been put up for the magazine from the Joy of Sticks him self and thought I'd share it with everybody here, please consider subscribing to his great channel here's the video : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XFxZitzgVE4 and a special thanks to everybody who grabbed a copy, without your support the magazine wouldn't be what it is. And for a show of thanks I might have something special in the pipeline for those who took the chance in buying a copy, so you'll have to wait and see what in store Kind regards Darren.

TheNameOfTheGame Posted September 14, 2014 Share Posted September 14, 2014 Great Issue! Looking forward to #2. Please don't forget to do an article on the awesome Tiertex in the next issue! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lost Dragon Posted September 14, 2014 Share Posted September 14, 2014 I did 'consider' tracking down Tiertex coders for interview for ST Gamer, but then realised i'd never really gotten into likes of HKM, Strider 2, Last Duel, Indy Jones:Last Crusade.Never played Dynasty Wars or UN Squadron on ST, nor Mercs or Strider (those 2 i hammered on Genesis), so probably was'nt the best person to do an interview with them. (I always try and restrict interviews to people who's games i really poured hours into). Oh and i hate Alien Storm. But hopefully someone out there could 'pen' a decent article for Vol 2.

Greyfox Posted September 14, 2014 Author Share Posted September 14, 2014 Lol, well firstly thanks "TheNameOfTheGame" for your feedback and delighted you loved the magazine, you all are the type of guys who it's being made for so delighted that you loved it. As regards to the Tiertex feature, I'd love to have something like this included, I think it would make a brilliant article and would have no problem including it for you guys, if there was somebody available to write it or if possible include mini interview within the feature as well. So if any of you feel you could be up to the challenge either as single entity and a team effort on it, I would most certainly consider including it in issue 2, the only rule is it would need to be in for December/ early January as I'm hoping to release issue 2 in February 2015, so the clock is ticking Also if anyone else wants to contribute an article to the magazine of interest and relevance to it, I would love to here from you also, as with issue 2 will be the final issue run of Atari ST gamer magazine and really want to go all out and you guys can be involved too. All I can offer at this time would be a free copy of issue 2 for your efforts and if we break the bank in sales a little beer money thrown your way also. Have a good one guys and thanks again Kind Regards Darren. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lost Dragon Posted September 16, 2014 Share Posted September 16, 2014 @TheNameOfTheGame: Just started 'throwing' misc research stuff Greyfox's way in name of all things Tiertex (names of coders involved, timescales, ST involvement in conversions, whhat was left out and why in games etc etc.) Hopefully it'll be of use to him/anyone looking to write an article on them. The more minds working on it, the better the level of research etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lost Dragon Posted September 16, 2014 Share Posted September 16, 2014 Actually, thinking about it, there's rich potential for (someone) to do a big feature on the teams behind the Coin-op conversions to the ST: Tiertex, Probe, ARC, Walking Circicles, ZZKJ, Assembly Line etc etc. Anyone up for it? :-) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lost Dragon Posted September 30, 2014 Share Posted September 30, 2014 :-) The 1st of the extra interviews i've carried out for ST Gamer Vol 2 etc has 'come in' and been forwarded for 'approval' by Greyfox.It's a joint content type intervie (ie not focused on the St, but has a few ST related questions) so it might appear in many forms, but looking forward to getting it out to the community. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lost Dragon Posted October 1, 2014 Share Posted October 1, 2014 Ok, so: In past 48 HRS...i've forwarded 3 interviews to Greyfox for possible inclusion in ST Gamer Vol. 2 or they might appear online, or both :-) 'Shorter' than my average interviews, but time is an issue for myself and the good folk involved, but light shed on 1 'lost' ST/Amiga game from 1 interview alone, a lost GB game on another so very glad i carried them out and appreciate the insights from those i spoke to. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Greyfox Posted December 14, 2014 Author Share Posted December 14, 2014 Thanks for the support and link has been sent., it was a wonderful and very nostalgic process creating ST gamer magazine and something I hoped would carry across to you all when reading it. Only a handful of things are worth the effort and in my opinion this is one of them and if I've brought back great memories to you the readers, than I've done my job Cheers Darren. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+Zeptari Posted December 14, 2014 Share Posted December 14, 2014 I just did a quick scan of the mag. I like what I see so far. In the future I'd like to see articles about the ST emulation scene, new ST hardware (floppy emulators\SD readers) and Atari classic arcade conversions on the ST (Moon Patrol, Joust, Missle Command..etc. Keep up the good work! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lost Dragon Posted December 22, 2014 Share Posted December 22, 2014 It's fantastic to read yet more kind words and support for ST Gamer on this very forum. Thanks to these and those of Greyfox himself in the past 12 months alone, my 'plans' for 2015 have changed, drastically in terms of what i'd planned for various Retro communities.I'll continue to post snippets on Lost Atari games on here and likes of GTW/Unseen 64 as/when they come in, you've still the 3 interviews i did exclusively for ST Gamer vol 2 to read and hopefully enjoy... But i'm now providing 'content' (interviews) for another 2 publications as well as ST Gamer.More details as/when said interviews go live, but i hope where possible, readers of ST Gamer will get to enjoy these as well. My deepest thanks yet again to all the readers, to those who gave freely of their time to be interviewed and to Greyfox himself for getting me into this 'game'.

Greyfox Posted December 23, 2014 Author Share Posted December 23, 2014 No need to thank me, I only opened up the opportunity and was delighted and hoping you'd continue to do the wonderful and enlightening interviews and lost game coverage so many got wrong in the past and set the record straight on a lot of it, for which I'm very thankful for as I'm sure the Communities are. Atari ST Gamer magazine issue 2 will be available in the new year at some stage, so it's not the end of this wonderful 16-bit just yet. So I'll finish of by wishing everyone here at Atari Age a wonderful Christmas and an Amazing Happy New Year to you all for the both the support and fantastic comments my Magazines have received since they were released. Again Thank you All and Lost Dragon for all the input over the last year. Kind regards Darren. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
