Alive 9
Jimmy O'Rourkes

Magical Time Travelling

Challenge Chamber

Preview

I am sure Anthony and Russell Hayward are known throughout the whole Atari scene
for one project called STEem. IMHO  STEem is the most usable Atari  STE emulator
available today. But STEem isn't the only project of the Hayward brothers. Since
eight years they are working on a collection of mini-games and referring to Russ
there is still a lot of work to do. Technically it seems to offer at least  some
artificial speech generation, while the remaining audio features doesn't seem to
promising (look at  the spec sheet  for details :)  However even Russell  doubts
that it will ever be released. So  I think there isn't much more to  write about
it. :) Maybe it  would be an idea  to release a small  preview with some of  the
mini-games, which I heard were quite addictive.
