I am more than proud to announce another edition of Silly Venture party - the biggest, most unconventional, craziest event dedicated to our beloved ATARI platform!

Love the pics! Thanks so much for sharing with those poor, unfortunate souls
(such as myself) who can't/couldn't be there.

Nothing more to add!

My Dears, as it is the 30th Anniversary of Atari Lynx, our mate RJ1307 has donated some very interesting prizes! Everyone who submits a game or demo for this console can try to "fight" for a LYNX II with a new fantastic LCD screen, or for an AGACART (Lynx SD)!

Huge thanks, RJ!

Thanks as well to Hospes for the poster.

Ah that's nice, the man is really cool!

My Dears, I would like to provide a clarification about compo entries for the ATARI LYNX platform, related to 30th Anniversary of this console and the available prizes. We and RJ1307, the sponsor of the awards, can now announce that there will be separate "LYNX DEMO COMPO" & "LYNX GAME COMPO" categories. In both of these, the prize for the 1st place will be:

- LYNX II with a new LCD screen, AgaCart & power supply (everything in unique "substitute" packaging - surprise!)

For the 2nd place in both categories, the winner will receive a AgaCart.

IMPORTANT! If it turns out that there's only one entry in the games category, in accordance with general Compo Rules the main prize will be automatically given to this entry whilst the AgaCart for the second place will be transferred to the Demo Category as a prize for the third place.

At the "Xenium 2019" event held last weekend in Katowice/POLAND (30th August - 1st September) the new invitation for "Silly Venture 2k19" has been presented! Kudos to all guys from Agenda and Lamers who put the intro together!

For those who haven't seen it yet, Mystic Bytes and Agenda released another invitro at Deadline 2019 party in Berlin ! (ranked 2nd in oldschool demo compo). This time (for a change) it wasn't ATARI platform, but... Sega Mega Drive N-joy!

Our prize pool is increasing almost every week! Now we would like mention 2 original games from RETRONICS and GORGH.

RETRONICS has given us 2 copies of the game "THE RESCUE EXPEDITION" (cartridge - ATARI / XL/XE)



Whereas GORGH has given us a copy of "601F" (cartridge - ATARI XL/XE), a game known from this year's ABBUC Software Contest 2019.



THANK YOU VERY MUCH!

[grey/msb]

Just look what prizes we've got! Karl Morris (aka Videl) sent us beautiful posters and badges for people taking part in SV2k19 competitions!









And hey, it's not over yet! We look forward for cool books to be send at the beginning of November! (need to be reprinted first!)



Thanks _A LOT_ Karl!

Hi Grey, are you gonna schedule the compo differently this year? It's good to be awake for the falcon demos...

[grey/msb]

Hi Rmd! Well, I feel a bit weird to reply and look at Your profile pic

This year we have ambitious plan to divide compos for 2 days. Let's hope we gonna make it happen!

Cheers m8!
