Arcade Attack: interview with Barry Leitch about Lotus 2
Barry Leitch is one of the world's longest-serving composers of video game music and has provided soundtracks and effects for a large number of games during his career. His best-known works include the classic racing games Lotus Turbo Esprit Challenge and Super Cars 2 for the Amiga and Horizon Chase 1 and 2, a recent retro-style racing game series for Playstation, Xbox, Switch and iPhone.
The Arcade Attack podcast previously published an interview (in English) with the musician in 2019 about his work on the classic Lotus 2 and has now republished it on YouTube with a playthrough of some Lotus 2 racetracks to accompany the talk. Barry provides exciting insights into his creative work and the process of developing his soundtracks.

Demoscene: TRISTAR + TSA and DevLab-TSA makerspace archive has been launched
The members of the former demoscene group ‘TRISTAR’ have put an archive online that contains extensive material from the period 1987 to 2012, including demos (for C64, PC and Amiga), music and graphics documenting the creative history of the group. Also of historical interest are the collections of photos and videos of scene parties and reports as well as scroll texts from Tristar productions. Those interested can also find the productions of the following art group The Solaris Agency (T.S.A) under this link.
In addition, content from the joint makerspace ‘DevLab T.S.A’ is now available. This offers a platform for creative minds to realise their projects in a collaborative environment. Since 2021, the makerspace has been open to interested visitors on certain days to provide an insight into the ongoing projects and working methods. Further information and visiting times can be found on the subsite of DevLab T.S.A..

Games database LemonAmiga has been hacked
The games database and retro community "LemonAmiga" has apparently been hacked: both lemonamiga.com and its sister site lemon64.com are currently offline, with only a note from the operators indicating that they are currently analyzing the attack and working on securing their own systems.
According to reports in various forums, around 60 accounts of LemonAmiga users have apparently been taken over, mostly very old accounts that have not been actively used for many years. Initially, the hijacked user accounts were used to start arguments in the forum or to make the port of 'Doom' the highest rated Amiga classic in the games database. Shortly before the shutdown, the forums were simply flooded with link spam.

Print magazine: "VD aktuell" 04
Press release: Summer fun with the retro gaming illustrated magazine on 64 full-color pages!
It's getting hot outside, time for some cool, easily digestible retro snacks! In the new issue of german VD aktuell, we take an intimate look at the relationship between Indiana Jones and Sophia Hapgood - are they really just colleagues? After a detour to the beach, we then head straight into space and reminisce about retro gaming classics. But we also take a look outside the box and talk about Planet of the Apes and a non-gaming phenomenon of the 1980s and 1990s: video libraries!
As always, there's news in the retro news section, plus brief introductions to new games and new hardware. The video program for the Virtual Dimension and Fog Lake Production channels once again gives you a detailed preview of the next three months and our comic "Danger Dennis" enters its second round.
What are you waiting for? Get your hands on it!

Crowdfunding: Book project by David Pleasance - "Dare to Dream"
After "Commodore - The Inside Story" and "From Vultures to Vampires", former Commodore UK manager David Pleasance is looking for pre-orders for a third book project at the title link. This time, however, the subject is fictional - "Dare to Dream" invites the reader to dream about what might have been if the author, together with the co-managing director Colin Proudfoot, had succeeded in taking over Commodore UK as planned following the bankruptcy of the parent company.
According to the description, former Commodore developer Dave Haynie assists him in writing the book. Participants in the crowdfunding campaign will receive the finished work for 30 British Pounds plus shipping costs (for the EU this will amount to a total of 40 Pounds, around 47 Euros), with the regular retail price being 39 pounds later.
