Atari's family of 8-Bit Home Computers are machines I feel don't get the love they deserve.

Which is a shame, as they've got quite a fascinating software library. But being they've getting a little more love of late - I thought I'd chip in with a few selections of games for them I Just Think Are Neat (and don't rely on key controls to play).

Thanks for watching!

Beyond The Scanlines is a series of explorations of interesting games (old and new) for classic home computer and console systems.
