The Register: Ideas for explaining an Amiga mystery wanted
A strange case the "The Register" has reported under the title link: an Amiga 4000 only then were transfered files from an external SCSI harddrive if the clock program was running - with a certain window size and placed on the top right-hand side of the Workbench.
The editor, Richard Speed, himself has given a possible explanation: "I suspect the issue was a weird DMA conflict between the DMA-based SCSI controller and the rest of the system with the clock application rendering adjusting the timings just enough for it to work." But he has enrouraged the readers to give similar theories in the comment section.

Platformer: Hydra Castle Labyrinth
Artur 'Arti' Jarosik has ported the Metroidvania clone "Hydra Castle Labyrinth" to AmigaOS. His version supports joysticks and (CD32-) gamepads, runs in windows or fullscreen mode, scales the screen solution as required and supports "save points". An Amiga equipped with a Vampire accelerator board is recommended.

Jump'n Run: Mini Zorro as Boxed Edition or free digital version
"Mini Zorro" (video) has been available for some weeks and is another part of a series of Backbone games released by José A. 'Jojo073' Gonzáles and Zoltar under the labels 'Amiga Wave' and 'IronGate' (e.g. Mini Swat). Upon request the digital version is available for free via e-mail. Additionally you can order a physical boxed edition with disks, manual and comic as well as stickers.
A price for the boxed edition has not been given. Other games of the developers could have been purchased for 10 Euro. Mini Zorro requires OCS and at least a 68020 processor. For a better performance, a slightly upgraded A1200 is recommended.

Music game for two mice: AmiSaber
AmiSaber (video) is a clone of the virtual reality game Beat Saber - a rhythm game taking place "in a surrealistic neon noir environment and featuring the player slicing blocks representing musical beats with a pair of contrasting colored sabers." The Amiga port is controlled with two mices and includes all necessary information and tools for creating levels with individual music. The game is supposed to run on an Amiga 500 with harddrive but the author recommends a better setup which is not specified.
