About

RoadBlasters is a 1987 vehicular combat arcade game developed and published by Atari Games, in which the player drives an armed sports car through a series of rally races against a fuel limit. RoadBlasters STE is a set of in-progress binary patches that add support for the Atari STE's enhanced hardware features to the existing Atari ST version of RoadBlasters. It's an early-stage project not yet intended for end users, and there is no standalone runnable build — patches must be manually loaded into a running copy of the original game via an emulator's debugger.

How it differs from the original

This project specifically targets hardware features unique to the Atari STE that aren't present on the original ST release, though it's still an early, unfinished set of patches rather than a full standalone release.

Getting started

These aren't a runnable game on their own: you build the patch binaries with vasm and a specific toolchain, then load the unmodified original RoadBlasters into the Hatari emulator configured as an STE, and manually load each patch binary into memory via Hatari's built-in debugger before resuming.

Requires original assets. The original Atari ST game RoadBlasters is required; these are patches to be applied to the original game.
