My original also not works. I think Karri is right about the AUDIN

I don't know if I am reputable but I certainly can't afford this kind of operation right now... But there are definitely other potential entity I can think if who could do this.

The GemTos is a french convention for every Atari fans that will held in St Just en Chaussée on may 4th & 5th. This will be the third edition of the convention. Yastuna Games will release a new game exclusively for the french GemTos convention, in limited numbers. So it means the game should not be available after the convention, apart for limited remaining stock. But I know it is frustrating not being able to attend a nice event, and not being able to get a game only available for this occasion, so here is the deal I can offer you: Every people who preorder the game before March, 22 will be able to get it at the convention price, and low postage fees. The game will not be available for pre-order on yastuna-games.com, so in order to book it, you must contact be by mail , private message here on AtariAge, yAronet (Fadest), Facebook (Yastuna Lynx or Yastuna Games), Twitter (@YastunaL) , Discord... FAQ: 1. Why do you not reveal the final cover of the game and some screenshots ? The game is part of the GemTos game coding contest, so I prefer to keep it secret until the convention to keep it exclusive to the contest. 2. Which kind of game is it ? The rules for the contest is to make a puzzle game for an Atari machine. Examples in the rules are a Bubble shooter like or a Candy Crush like. This is not a Bubble shooter or Candy Crush like, but this is definitively a puzzle game, inspire by another classic, but with my own take. The game plays in Tate mode. 3. Why not releasing it a usual ? To be honest, puzzle games do not sell very well on Atari Lynx (CSS Traffic Regulation is less than 50 sales), so my first intention was to make a very small run exclusive to the GemTos (less than 20 games), rather than the 100 production run I am doing usually. But I know I would disappoint some fans around the world, so I am finally adding an option for everyone to book the game. Only issue is that you know you will get a puzzle game made by Fadest, but you don't know which game... 4. What is the price of the game ? Production costs have risen up recently and low production run imply higher costs, but I want to keep the price at 40€. This can be done by using Paypal by friend method of payment. 5. What are the postage fees ? They are a bit lower than on yastuna-games.com France: 6€ European Union + UK: 11€ Rest of the world: 16€ 6. Will a second run be produced ? the game be available on yastuna-games.com afterward ? There is no plan for a second run. If after the GemTos, some games are still available, they should end on yastuna-games.com. 7. Is the game 100% complete ? What if the game is not released finally ? The game is around 90% completion and there is very high probability it will be ready for the deadline. If some external reason lead to a cancellation of the release, I will of course refund every buyer with Paypal by friends. 8. Any other thing you may add about the game ? It features Leaf in a very different kind of game than the Ynxa platformers...

There is an Analogue mode, a Lynx mode and a Lynx+ mode. Did not dig into them to compare yet. -
Analogue Pocket Lynx Adapter Now Part of $99 Package
Fadest replied to gilsaluki's topic in Atari Lynx
So I received mine today. Only tested with a few of homebrew (mostly my games), and a New Generation demo on Lynx GD It seems to works well, games with EEprom are working (this was one of my fear as this not something standard back in the days). For games in Tate mode, you must go into setup to rotate controls, but maybe the formware is aware of official tate mode games and it is not required (only tested with CSS Traffic Regulation and an upcoming surprise release) Some (many ?) times, I got a with screen with "Error." written in red, I get this is the "Insert game" or the Analogue, most of time, cleaning cartridge was OK, sometimes, never managed to launch the game (but I was using special 3D printed carts so maybe they are a bit too thick) Only game I did not manage to get running is Alpine Games, first edition (green PCB), screen goes black just after the title screen (it works on real Lynx). Maybe @Songbird new release work, I don't know. Lynx GD is working, I managed to run last NG demo (Unknown world), which is streaming some data from a file on the SD card, so this is a good thing. Biggest disappointment is that I broke wy good old proptotype @Lynxman flashcard because of the adapter (one component is too big, and to low on the card and got scratched). I don't know if "retails" flashcard have the same issues (my other ones are at some other devs home for their developments). Oh, one thing, you must put the card with the sticker facing the outside of the adapter, unlike on the Lynx... -
Basically, downloading a ROM and playing it with an emulator or on a flashcard is quite the same thing... There is no more support the community in one case or another (unless you support BigP via its patreon and of course, you support the flashcart builder). Until there are ROM sold locked to a particular device. Now, I can understand a developer focusing on real hardware and not making effort to support emulators if the exeperience given to player can be slightly different because of emulator problems.

Ynxa - Leaf and the Guardians of Time (my LynxJam23 entry)
Fadest replied to Fadest's topic in Atari Lynx
I really like Ridiculous Reality on the Atari 8 bits, so I borrowed the concept (but it probably come from something older), but in a puzzle game, instead of a more frantic platformer. I am also happy it is nearly a full game (with a tutorial, a story and an ending - even if just simple screens right now) Now I can put the intermediate screens & level design outside the main file, I will have more space to enhance it a bit. By enhancements, I mean new intermediate screens & storytelling, new & more levels, reworked assets, and maybe replace Leaf ability (the teleportation is maybe a bit strong, at least, it is hard to design levels because teleport can break complexity - hence the limited number per level). I'd also like to add something I could not do in the jam because of scarce memory: the notion of time. Something like planting a seed in the past with Grandma, that will become ivy Leaf can use to climb (so no more ladders in some levels) for example... Just need to find some motivation to take the time to do it. -

Thanks you, much appreciated. For the AHA, it simply did not get enough points with 6 voters on 7 participants (I did not vote for my own games - ethical reasons) to be in the final list.
