Title: Songbird presents Loopz for the Atari Jaguar

Carl posted this on AA but I wanted to share it here...

Songbird Productions is pleased to announce LOOPZ for the Atari Jaguar!

It's really very simple: you get pieces of different sizes and shapes. Then you have to fit them together to form complete loops. It's so simple, in fact, that most people can easily finish their first session in... oh... five to ten hours.

But by then you're addicted.

Features:
Three enthralling one-player games
Two two-player games involving strategy
Ten tortuous levels
Two bonus games
LOOPZ will tie you up in knots!

The two-player games feature either cooperative or competitive simultaneous play with a second controller. ProController support is also included. Various skill levels are available to challenge even the most competitive gamer!

OOPZ will be formally released near the end of October 2018, however a very small quantity will be available at PRGE on October 20 for early purchase at the AtariAge booth. The game includes a professionally printed full color box and manual.

Looks like a fun little puzzle game.

It's available on the Lynx and it is a fun game.

It's actually just another ST port by cjones. No idea why Songbird is selling this one... probably because Carl has the Lynx license?

They all seem to be ST ports nowadays.  There is a racing game being developed that is not a conversion, though.  I think I created a thread for it - Not Outrun is the name.

Looks good, there is room for these ports and I support anyone that creates them, just nice to see some original material coming to the Jag though.
