Amiga 500 HDD LED Adapter
Matthias 'DJBase' Münch has designed a simple HDD-LED adapter for the Amiga 500, which visually displays the activity of a hard disk on accesses (e.g. on a Warp 560, Vampire 500 and many other expansion cards) via the original LED board (DISK LED). The new revision C adds LED indicators for Power, Reset and Use. A YouTube video shows the adapter in action.

Preview video: Kung Fu action 'Devil's Temple'
Devil's Temple features 10 stages of intense arcade kung fu action based on the classic Irem games Kung Fu Master and Vigilante. Over 300 frames of animation were packed into the game and every cycle of performance was used on the Amiga A500. The game will adapt to upgrades, so additional chip ram will result in better music, AGA will provide additional colors and a greater variety of enemies in the game.
Yesterday, a new preview video was released for the game in development, showing levels one through six. However, the developer points out that there are still "many annoying bugs to be fixed." The game is already available for pre-order as a boxed edition. Likewise, a demo version of the first stage is available on itch.io.
