CREATIVE PPL NEED YOUR HELP
GIVE A HAND BEFORE IT'S NOT TOO LATE!
by.. Grey / Mystic Bytes
--------------------------------------------------- -- ------ ---- ---- -- ----
As promised in the previous issue, this article is gonna be the steady element
of each release. The general idea is to support Atarians who keep our scene
alive e.g. demo-coders, game-creators, disk-mag editors etc.

GROWLING STUDIO
project by Sqward / Mystic Bytes
:::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::
Sqward is going to code the new outstanding tracker for Atari systems! It could
be something like "FastTracker" for Atari machines. Features? Working as a GEM
application, including the possibility to write your own plugins (e.g. drivers
for Atari computers with various sound-cards), 32chn or more (depends if you
own any turbo-cards), finally GOOD *.XM replayer (twice as good as the Graoumf
one) which doesn't exist atm. If Sqward decides to make this a reality it's
gonna be a SHAREWARE product. I think it could be REALLY worth it to register!
Sqward says it could easily beat Fastracker on the PC! More features, superb
interface, correct XM replayer, possibility to create *.XM tracks on Atari etc.
Don't waste this chance to make it a reality and impress your PC friends! All
that Sqward needs is FEEDBACK. Don't ignore this word. He needs more than one
person who would like to see this as a product. If there isn't be any interest
- Sqward will simply skip this project!

SIKOR SOFT'S BACK!
XL/XE software publisher
:::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::
Atari XL/XE was a VERY popular machine in Poland for many years. So there was
no surprise that most of the new software has been released in this country.
When 8-bit Atari was dying in most of the European countries back in the 90's,
in Poland it was gaining power. More and more software publishers appeared just
like: LK Avalon, ASF, Sonix, Spectra, StanBit, Mirage, Krysal or Sikor soft. We
witnessed Atari's back in most computer shops, which offered more and more new
games for this machine! Many mags dedicated to gamers have started to write
again about the "new wave of Atari games" in the middle of 90's! Games were
selling quite well even if piracy at the time was legal in Poland. But suddenly
the amount of new games for this machine stated to slow and only the strongest
one publishers survived: LK Avalon and Mirage. The single new games came up and
that was the death-kiss of commercial games for Atari. Strangely enough some of
these publishers tried their luck in releasing games for other systems,like the
C-64 for example and... failed.
Now we have 2001 year and... guess what? One of these publishers thinks about
trying to get back in the XL/XE market with new games! It's SIKOR SOFT from
Warsaw/POLAND known for a couple of commercial titles for XL/XE series, e.g.
5x5, Sexy Six, Neuroid, ABC etc.. Piot Sikorski, the chief of this firm said:
"Currently SIKOR SOFT activity is hanged. Anyway we still have all the
software which was published for Atari XL/XE by ourselves. We do plan
to back on the XL/XE market, however the interest of Atarist is simply
too low at the moment".
What can I say? If you have an 8-bit Atari and you would like to see some new
games for your machine, don't wait but write a mail to Sikor Soft to show your
interest!
