Atari ST exclusive games
http://www.atarilegend.com/games/gam...&game_search=1
http://www.atarilegend.com/games/gam...p?game_id=3532 you need only Atari ST emulator, disk images (planetemu.net) and TOS image version 1.62 Alien Thing & Alien Blast need more than 1MB of virtual memory I don't know why Alien Blast is little slow under emulator (STeem) Edit1: Exclusive Atari ST games that were never ported to the Amiga We know that the Atari ST was physically hardware inferior to the Amiga, but there were still quite a few commercial Atari ST games that never saw an Amiga release. This has always interested me because, even though the Amiga is and probably always will be my favourite gaming platform, the ST and all other gaming platforms always have their own special and unique games to play. So far from the old thread Atari ST games that outshone the Amiga we have a few exclusive ST games mentioned, plus I've collected together quite a few more. The list I have so far is as following (with links to Atari Legend entries):
+ = available now on Amiga, but never officially released # = ported from the ST to the Amiga by meynaf in 2012: http://eab.abime.net/showthread.php?p=797066#post797066 Are there any more anyone can think of? They don't have to be exclusive to the Atari ST. Just not released on the Amiga. For example Star Trek was also released for DOS and the C64, but never on the Amiga. I know that the early US ST released were mostly never ported, Early Activision, Ere Informatique, Hippo and Loricels games, Atari Corp games... will have to check the releases from those to see if there are any more that were not released on the Amiga. Update: I've just found a load more listed on a few forums. I've updated the list above to include them. Quite a few for us all to try and enjoy via emulation.

Edit4: Deleted Toyettes from the above list. Last edited by prowler; 07 May 2013 at 21:42. Reason: Edit4. |

A really good Alien Breed clone is Alien Swarm, a free mod for Unreal Tournament 2004. http://www.blackcatgames.com/alienswarm.html
They were working on an updated mod using the source engine, but I dont know how much progress they made with it. The best bit about the mod is doing 4 player co-op! |

I checked some games:
http://www.atarilegend.com/games/gam...?game_id=5409# no music, collision detection with some unexpected glitches, basic & odd sounds, good gfx, main hero is little too slow http://www.atarilegend.com/games/gam...p?game_id=5042 nice Dizzy clone but jumping is horrible, you can hear music from Sanxion/Extirpator on title screen http://www.atarilegend.com/games/gam...p?game_id=3521 Montezuma's Revenge clone, very similar 8-bit playability, but it's good game with weird main hero http://atarilegend.com/games/games_d...p?game_id=4082 you can name it Flood 2 bombs/grenades bounce & explode with similar effect |

Hoog is very nice!,I never thought that the Atari ST would interest to me in its PD games.Its commercial games are all in Amiga except for some bad one.There were many users of Atari ST,the support of the users to the Atari ST is very nice!
