    What's up, Atari friends? Any good demos lately? I saw some stuff in the
    New Years Disk, but I think it was all just small intros. Looking
    forward to a full on demo from some dormant groups out there :).

    That game called The Children that came out recently is pretty good.. https://bunsen.itch.io/the-children-by-vitoco

    Good find, that does look neat. I'm just coming off the tail end of
    moving house so hopefully will have my Atari setup in action again soon.

    8-Bit Guy's Attack of the PETSCII Robots got ported to Atari some time
    last year IIRC, it's a pretty neat game despite it's Commodore origins LOL.

    Man, I still can't figure out that game. What the heck are you supposed
    to do? Maybe there's a TFM that I didn't R..

    I guess the results of the Atari Homebrew Awards will be today! Should
    be a good watch..
    Oh the awards show is apparently in 2 hours...

    Excellent question! https://thandor.net/article/40 suggests the manual
    is decent and you gotta kill all the robots but I haven't played it yet.

    I didn't know that channel existed, following now!
