Albert - A high grade platformer released for the ATARI XL/XE

Those of you looking for some fresh news for the Atari XL/XE have come to the right place, as Saberman has just informed us of a brand new game for the Atari 8bit called 'Albert'. This game first mentioned via the atarionline website, tells us of a character called Albert that has to traverse many different levels, collect highly sought after gemstones, while also avoiding dangerous enemies such as fast moving wasps!

This game for the Atari XL/XE looks as if it is the next best thing for this 8bit system, as not only are the graphics of high quality, but there's plenty of animation to be seen, controls are spot on, and the scrolling is smooth. As one person puts it "  The sprites, scrolling, colours and effects put a lot of 8 bit counterparts to shame. This computer is 42 yrs old! The programmers continue to amaze with what they can get out of this amazing computer. Well done!"
