Atari 520ST en roue libre
Let's check out "Thrust" on the #AtariST #retrogaming #Atari ... https://youtu.be/VRJzjYNz-sU
I made a game for Atari's "I, Rebel" game jam, to be judged by, and the theme "A Perfect Beast" chosen by, @llamasoft_ox
"Captain Beast" is inspired by the 1988 #AtariST game Captain Blood.
This is the first time I've done a #gamejam despite having started as a professional game dev 25 years ago
I need a momentary button switch (a reset button) that can solder into one of these through-hole pairs, more often used for jumper pins. I can't find any with simply through pins - such buttons always have the rounded fin connectors with an in-bored hole.
Anyone know where I can find such a button? Thanks.

Für „nur“ knapp dreihundert D-Mark erhielt man Ende der 1980er ein Jahr lang monatlich die Diskette zu einer der Computer-Zeitschriften des Markt&Technik-Verlags.
Das finde ich ja heute noch teuer.
Cartoonist Yaakov Kirschen died Monday.
Many are celebrating him for "Dry Bones," his great life's work.
But he has a lesser-known legacy: as a tech innovator who brought humor and humanity to the cold silicon world of computers.

In addition to anecdotes about the games, I see there will also be interviews.
Can't wait for the book!

Does the very first batch of Atari ST have the type of keyboard which has million springs jump out if you take the keyboard backplate screws out?
I have one with a broken esc-key and I'm wondering what approach to take to repair it. The key has physically snapped the cross-shaped thing that holds the keycap in place.
EDIT: I'm starting to think it was those rubber pads that can fall out, it's been around 40 years since I saw that to happen, but I haven't opened an ST keyboard after watching my dad fumble it and spread what I assumed to be springs all over the floor.
