Games announcements: Morci, Kung Fu Master, Green Beret, Project Quest
Jump'n run 'Morci' (video) has been teased for a while, now it has also got a name. The title, realized with the Scorpion Engine, requires AGA and some Fast RAM.
Kung Fu Master (Videos: 1, 2) comes from the creators of Turbo Sprint and is supposed to be a conversion of the arcade classic of the same name.
'Green Beret' aka 'Rush'n Attack' is another arcade classic. The Amiga conversion is developed with the Scorpion Engine.
Project Quest comes from the makers of the announced tactical shooter Project Horizon and uses its engine, but offers a fantasy setting. A demo version of the game is already available for download. The developers are asking for feedback on whether this side project should also be developed further.

Developer package: DevPack 1.11
The free "DevPack" by Dimitris Panokostas and Philipp Lonke is intended for Amiga users who want to develop their own software under AmigaOS. The new version 1.11 contains updated versions of RedPill and vasm/vlink, also a link to the AmigaOS 3.2-NDK has been added. AmiPython 2.3.3 has been removed from the distribution because the author apparently did not agree with the distribution as part of DevPack.
