Indie Retro News (Webseite) Jump'n Run: Smarty And The Nasty Gluttons
'Smarty And The nasty Gluttons' (Video) is a Jump'n Run that was intended for a commercial release in the early nineties but never finished due to the collapsing market. With help from members of the active Amiga scene, the original coder has now revamped his old code and added the missing functionality. Graphics and sounds had already been completed decades ago, which is why the full version of the game is now available for download.

'Smarty' requires an Amiga with at least one megabyte RAM and Kickstart 1.2 or newer. According to the developer, 'modest' efforts were put into making it compatable with newer Amiga setups. The source code for the game is going to be released this fall, a commercial release is planned aswell. (cg) (Translation: cg)

With the USB adapter 'ADF Drive' and its accompanying copy program 'ADF Copy', Amiga floppy disks can be read using a standard PC floppy drive under Windows, Linux or Mac OS. Since our last news item, both the adapter's firmware as well as the frontend were updated several times: Several bugs were fixed and the User Interface was redesigned. Additionally, the software can now react to packet loss caused by a slow USB connection. (cg) (Translation: cg)
