Atari Bhaji
Welcome to the February issue of MyAtari. At the time of writing, Shiuming and I have just enjoyed yet another one of our curry evenings. This time we went to an old favourite in Wimbledon (near where the tennis tournament is held) called Ahmed Tandoori.

Although we're both extremely busy what with one thing and another, I am pleased to say that we still manage to hold our curry evenings on a fairly regular basis. We consider them to be almost unofficial board meetings - well, that is our excuse anyway - where we take the opportunity to chat and debate ideas about the mag.

By having these meetings in a relaxed social setting... I firmly believe that we are more likely to come up with some truly fantastic ideas than if we sat on the sofa drinking and playing Jaguar games.

Tonight we managed to thrash out some interesting ideas which we will be following up and developing for future issues - watch this space.

Of course, these meetings are far from exclusive... any MyAtari reader is more than welcome to join us for the next one! So, if you like curry, live local-ish to us (Surrey, UK) and would like to join us for the next MyAtari unofficial board meeting, please get in touch!

Right, I'm off to sleep it off.

Life begins at issue 40
Make yourself comfortable and enjoy the goodness we have in store for February. Our first exclusive this month is a special development report on the forthcoming Jaguar game from Starcat Developments, Eerievale. It boasts features never seen before in a Jaguar game, and all those who saw its preview at E-JagFest came away well impressed. Next, we delve into the world of Duranik, two German brothers with a knack for creating very polished looking home-brew games, the latest being the highly anticipated Alpine Games on the Lynx.

After recovering from the shock of seeing Papyrus X at JagFest Micro last November, we've got a detailed review of it this issue by Thomas Wellicome.
