Men at War is the name of a forthcoming Falcon game by Bonus Software/FUN. Your quite complex task is to eliminate your opponent with the help of a machine gun. The game is played from an overhead view in various arenas (playfields). A couple of nice extras makes the FUN go on. The latest preview can be downloaded directly from the FUN homepage (new in this version: bonus items, drone bombs, new ingame gfx, module music by Toodeloo/DHS).
Ever wondered what an Atari programmer is doing day by day? In two cases you now have the possibility to read all about their activities or inactivities in their online diaries. Tat of Avena started a so called demo diary for his forthcoming Falcon demo Binliner which gives you a regularly update of how the demo proceeds or not. The Reservoir Gods have now taken over this idea for their next Falcon game Republic and have created a diary too. So let’s hope that they will still find some time to code while writing their diaries…

The Reservoir Gods have striked again with the release of Godboy X a completly overworked and partly recoded version of their Falcon Gameboy emulator. Godboy X features a much faster Gameboy emulation, allows sprite clipping, original Gameboy colours as well as CinemaScope and double line screen modes. Especially the improved emulation speed comes in positiv and the first Godboy X release Megaman 2 stays perfectly playable even on unspeeded Falcons. Like in other Godboy releases the Reservoir Gods have added trainer modes and tracker sound to improve the gaming experience. Pink Pages – The Reservoir Gods Homepage
