Third edition of the FujiCup, a competition that selects the best #Atari8bit computers game of the previous year (2025). In addition to the jury's vote, there is also a popular vote, which requires a free donation to participate, contributing to a rich prize pool. fujicup.pl/ #atari

Last week I released a project a couple of years in the making which allows the #atari8bit to communicate with a #cubeSQL database. cubeSQL wraps #SQLite as a server. I made an admin program called CubeDot (dBase dot prompt style), a POC todo manager called Fuji Do, and a spoof called Fuji Poo. This allows the Atari to handle over 100,000 records with full featured browsing! You can find out more and download them (with complete manuals) at my website:

I waited to post here until I got some screenshots posted.

On #Atari8bit computers it is possible to play 80x192 pixels, 128 colors, 50/60 frames per second videos with multicarts like AVGCart/SUBCart. The conversion is a bit complicated but now there is avi2atari, a tool that allows you to do all the work with a single command. github.com/HanJammer/avi2atari/ #atari #retrocomputing

The original #FujiNet Introduction video, when it was still just an #Atari8bit network adapter.

I find it exceedingly ironic that this video didn't even break 1.5K views after five years.
