+davidcalgary29 Posted November 11, 2004 Share Posted November 11, 2004 Has anyone heard of the status of this interesting port? I've always wanted to see Tempest on the Lynx. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trip_Cannon Posted November 11, 2004 Share Posted November 11, 2004 Perhaps it will be a version of Tempest 2000? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eric_ruck Posted November 12, 2004 Share Posted November 12, 2004 Actually I think this is doable. If only I were independently wealthy and didn't have to work for a living. Eric Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd be interested in seeing some screens (even if they're only mock-ups.) :wink: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

D-lag Posted November 15, 2004 Share Posted November 15, 2004 Well. the tempest clone is called OuRaGaN, the project website is here : http://lynx.nymphodusse.net/?lnk_menu=20&lnk_item=4 You can download the only public work in progress release. It's one year old and you shouldn't expect anymore release soon as it's autor postponed it undefinetely (lack of time). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Godzilla Posted November 18, 2004 Share Posted November 18, 2004 awesome, thansk for the tip! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4ever2600 Posted February 10, 2011 Share Posted February 10, 2011 Does anyone still have a copy of this OuRaGaN Tempest clone? All the links from years ago are dead and couldn't even find it with Google. I'd really like to play it and even found the screenshot, but no demo. Hoping one of you still have it on your hard drive from many years ago. Thanks in advance... - D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrekMD Posted February 10, 2011 Share Posted February 10, 2011 The post from the link is from Nov 2004 - chances are that's the reason the link does not work. Unfortunate as a Tempest clone for the Lynx would be awesome! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

4ever2600 Posted February 11, 2011 Share Posted February 11, 2011 Yeah, I kind of figured that the 2004 links were dead after seven years. That's why I was hoping to find someone that actually had this in their rom collection and wouldn't mind sharing. Keep lookin guys, I really appreciate everyone's help. Thanks! - Daryl Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EricDeLee Posted February 12, 2011 Share Posted February 12, 2011 If anyone had it... I thought Rygar would. It is not on his site though. I looked around and could not find much on the internet Has anyone tried to send an email to the guy that was making it?

sirlynxalot Posted February 16, 2014 Share Posted February 16, 2014 (edited) Close... but no cigar: Wayback... no download though. Sorry to bump this thread from its ancient grave - but I just successfully downloaded the LNX file from the archived site (first file in the list, the ZIP isn't archived) and it appears to be working in handy.

+LS650 Posted February 17, 2014 Share Posted February 17, 2014 Yep, I downloaded it as well and will have to try it out later tonight on my Win machine. How does it play? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sirlynxalot Posted February 17, 2014 Share Posted February 17, 2014 I haven't spent a lot of time with it, but it does seem like an early WIP. I think one button shoots and the other might create more enemies to come out of the center. Go into this expecting it to be a neat proof of concept, rather than T2K on the lynx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atari_afternoon Posted February 17, 2014 Share Posted February 17, 2014 It works and is playable IIRC from then but actually you need one of these 3D cardboard bispectacles (red and green). You can play it without one but you see everything as if you were drunk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Go into this expecting it to be a neat proof of concept, rather than T2K on the lynx Guys, you're looking in the wrong place. No need to downlod some 11 year old version via wayback machine. The developer has a current website, and he posted the latest version of the game here on AA in 2012 even http://devlynx.ti-fr.com/ouragan.php It is still not done, and feels too unresponsive imo. But you could surely develop this into a great version. I'd drop the 3D effect, hoping to get it to be smoother, improve responsiveness and add some graphical oomph, but I'm no dev.

sirlynxalot Posted February 17, 2014 Share Posted February 17, 2014 (edited) Cool! What great news. I'll be checking that out in the next few minutes. Coming to the party (lynx scene) late, it would be really helpful to have some kind of list with links to homebrew games such as this Maybe one already exists?EDIT: I suppose the sticky at the top of the forum on lynx projects probably fits that bill in part.

EDIT: I suppose the sticky at the top of the forum on lynx projects probably fits that bill in part. Here is a pretty good list. I'm sure it needs some updating though. If you see any gaps feel free to IM me and I will update accordingly. http://atariage.com/forums/blog/494/entry-9329-lynx-game-list-part-1/ 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
108 Stars Posted February 17, 2014 Share Posted February 17, 2014 That list makes me sad. I see ancient projects never to be finished on it. I'd so much love to work on something like Final Strike. BTW, you did not list TNT Terry itself, but mentioned Dynablaster as a TNT Terry bootleg. Possibly like DerLuchs suggested the bootleg could be from sage's Dynablaster? I don't think there's a TNT Terry ROM available, but sage's Dynabaster clone is available in an early version. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael David Morsette Posted February 17, 2014 Share Posted February 17, 2014 (edited) TNT Terry is on there, it is on the list part two under with the "T"s http://atariage.com/forums/blog/494/entry-9361-lynx-game-list-part-2/ . My description of Dynaplaster though I believe was inaccurate, so I took off the reference to TNT Terry. I don't really have any good info on Dynablater. I searched the forums and didn't see any good info or a ROM, no ROM for TNT Terry either. If you have more info, forward it to me and I'll post; well except for ROMS. ROMS I'll post if the developers don't mind. I try to keep from stepping on toes there, though I don't always succeed Edited February 17, 2014 by MrBland Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
