  • The Atari™ Compendium ©1992 Software Development Systems Written by Scott Sanders Not for Public Distribution
    The Atari™ Compendium ©1992 Software Development Systems Written by Scott Sanders Not for Public Distribution Introduction The following pages are a work in progress. The Atari™ Compendium (working title) is designed to be a comprehensive reference manual for Atari software and hardware designers of all levels of expertise. At the very least, it will (hopefully) be the first book available that documents all operating system functions, including any modifications or bugs that were associated with them, from TOS 1.00 to whatever the final release version of Falcon TOS ends up being. GEMDOS, BIOS, XBIOS (including sound and DSP calls), VDI, GDOS, LINE-A, FSM, AES, MetaDOS, AHDI and MiNT will be documented. Hardware information to the extent that information is useful to a software programmer will also be covered. This volume will not include hardware specifications used in the creation of hardware add-ons, a programming introduction designed for beginners, or an application style guide. All of the aforementioned exclusions will be created separately as demand for them arise. In addition, I also plan to market a comprehensive spiral- bound mini-reference book to complement this volume. By providing early copies of the text of this volume I hope to accomplish several goals: 1. Present a complete, error-free, professionally written and typeset document of reference. 2. Encourage compatible and endorsed programming practices. 3. Clear up any misunderstandings or erroneous information I may have regarding the information contained within. 4. Avoid any legal problems stemming from non-disclosure or copyright questions. A comprehensive Bibliograpy will be a part of this volume.

  • The Human Machine Art Interface: Arcade Port Aesthetics and Production Practices
    The Human Machine Art Interface: Arcade Port Aesthetics and Production Practices Kieran Nolan GV2 Research Group School of Computer Science and Statistics Trinity College, Dublin +353-868227888 [email protected] ABSTRACT This research focuses on the aesthetic properties and production processes of arcade to home computer game ports during the 1980s and 1990s, in particular arcade titles originating in Japan that were licensed by UK based software houses for the 8-bit and 16-bit microcomputer market. The conversion teams worked within the unique constraints of 6 main platforms, namely the ZX Spectrum, Amstrad / Schneider CPC, Commodore 64, Atari ST, Commodore Amiga, and MS-DOS PC. In all the examples discussed, the original arcade cabinet was used as the core audiovisual and gameplay reference. As a human mediated process, the conversion of the digital material of arcade game to home computers not only bore the audiovisual constraints of the target platforms, but also the creative signatures of the conversion teams. The most successful home ports succeeded in capturing the essence of the arcade originals, while positively augmenting the gameplay, narrative, and overall aesthetic. Keywords arcade, home computer, video game, art, aesthetics, port, conversion, platform INTRODUCTION This paper concentrates on the creative processes and aesthetic properties, both audiovisual and interactive, of arcade to home computer game conversions in the 1980s and 1990s. It focuses mainly on arcade games licensed by third party developers for conversion to western 8-bit and 16-bit microcomputer platforms by UK based software houses, with findings based on first hand interaction with home arcade ports, alongside developer interviews sourced from video game magazines of the period.

  • Atari, Creative Making & Zombie Computers: Robbo. Solucja
    Marecki: Atari, Creative Making & Zombie Computers Atari, Creative Making & Zombie Computers: Robbo. Solucja. Piotr Marecki Jagiellonian University [email protected] Abstract In 1989, Janusz Pelc wrote the game Robbo on an 8-bit Atari, one of the first personal computers, which enjoyed a cult-like status in Poland before the fall of the Berlin Wall in 1989. Robbo, a small robot, collects screws and has to get through 56 planets. The game has achieved cult status, spawning hundreds of remixes and modifications. Beginning in the 1980s, fans (once mainly young boys, today adult men) played this game, collecting screws and running away from enemies such as bats, flying eyes, devils etc., while drinking beer, smoking cigarettes, eating crisps and telling jokes. One of the places where you play Robbo are the so-called demoparties, which gather computer geeks, technology nerds and fans of old computers. They are the heroes of Robbo. Walkthrough (2018), the first computer generated book published in Polish asRobbo. Solucja. The game’s basis is a text generator with soundtrack, made using technology original to the Atari. The concept and text was created by Piotr Marecki. The project was presented as part of the wild compo during the demoparty Silly Venture 2017 in Gdańsk. The program lasts 56 minutes and generates walkthrough for the 56 individual planets. However, it is looped, so it generates an inexhaustible amount of solutions, one of which contains a published book. All of the elements of the work – text, music, code, composition, as well as graphics – were created by Polish Atari enthusiasts.
