RIPPLE IDE: Firmware update for Zorro 2 IDE interface
Last week we informed you about the open source projects lide.device, a new IDE driver for the Amiga, and CIDER, an expansion card for the CDTV (amiga-news.de reported). Matt "LIV2" Harlum had developed RIPPLE IDE for his lide.device as a follow-up product. This is an IDE interface for Zorro-2-based Amiga models (A2000, A3000, A4000), which interested parties can build on their own using Gerber data and a parts list.

RIPPLE IDE in combination with lide.device work with Kickstart 1.3 or later, support drives up to 2 terabytes and ATAPI devices, offer an autoboot function and thus also boot from CD-ROM and ZIP/LS-120 drives.

The firmware update 18/04/24) was released today for RIPPLE DE, which fixes errors in the boot process and in the autoconfig function. (nba)

Turn-based strategy: Update introduces free elections in "Settle the World"
Christian 'TheoTheoderich' Wiegel's latest update for his turn-based building and trading game "Settle the World" introduces free elections: In the game, the population of cities can now vote every few years on whether the player should remain in power. Elections become available as soon as the inhabitants of a city have reached the worker class for the first time. If the player wins the election, he can continue playing, if he loses the vote, the game ends for him.

The integration of the new voting system is not yet complete and will be expanded with future updates. As the outcome of elections currently still depends too much on chance, the game does not yet end if the player loses an election. Details on the influence of the townspeople's happiness on their voting behavior and which other factors will influence the outcome of elections in the future can be found in Wiegel's developer diary.

Shoot 'em Up: Early demo version of "NEON world" (v0.2)
After Frank Neumann had not programmed anything for the Amiga with assembler for 30 years, he wants to get back into it with the shoot 'em up "NEON world" (amiga-news.de reported). With this third early demo version, the first level has now 27 screens, including a boss at the end. There are also minor improvements here and there.

The next steps will be adding PowerUps for the player and moving back in the level when the player dies (at the moment the player is immediately respawned and the level just continues). The game should run on an Amiga 500. more ... (dr)
