California Games, A.P.B., Lemmings, Blue Lightening, and Todd’s Adventures in Slime World were all favorites of mine on my Lynx.

So good. I had the first lynx. I had a nice collection of like 10 games. Either it was lost or stolen in like 7th grade. I’m still sad.

Zarlor Mercenary, like R-Type but vertical. Lots of fun and, IMO, one of the games that better used the Lynx’s capabilities.

I was going to make a YT video on a certain topic this week, but doing research for it, I found all the cool little gadgets being sold now that are pre-loaded with emulators.

…and it made me so happy to know that younger generations are being exposed to our cool, old games in an easy, cheap, accessible way.

Those were two of my favorites. Mainly played BMXing on California Games and I’m still “As good as James” (playing on Steam Deck nowadays)

Lynx was as much “the Epyx console” as it was “the Atari portable”. Epyx had so many high-quality games on Commodore 64; I have not played all of the Lynx ports but I can tell you that Electrocop was a sequel to Impossible Mission, in spirit. All of “The Games” (unlicensed Olympics) series were pretty great on C64.

Early on, one of Epyx’s founders got sick of just reusing the Apshai engine over and over and left to found Free Fall, who created Archon - one of Electronic Arts’ first games.
