What to do in monochrome while waiting for a color cable?

Recommended Posts

I've been running my STe in monochrome while I wait for a known-to-work-with-Framemeister SCART cable. Most games are out of the question. So, I've been installing productivity programs like Atari Works and configuring the system as a whole with XControl, CPX files, etc.

 

What kind of little project can I take on in monochrome? Ideas, anyone? :)

Since I own a STacy I've kept a list of mono games - you'd be surprised just how many there are

and how a few actually look better at the higher resolution.

 

Hope this helps. :)

 

PS And this list is by no means complete...

When I first got my ST I only had the SM124 monitor, but I managed to find a few mono games that were alright. My particular ST was from a recording studio and came with a complete copy of Cubase that was kind of fun to mess with. The hi-res mode does look nice
