Platformer: First demo version of Phantom Leap
HooGames 2017 is currently working on several projects: after a first preview video of a Zelda-like game (amiga-news.de reported), a first demo version of the platformer "Phantom Leap" (video) developed with the Scorpion Engine was released today: in typical Giana Sisters style, you make your way through initially four playable levels and try to "head out" and collect as many coins as possible. The game runs on any Amiga 500 with 512 KB RAM expansion. (dr)

Programming language: AmiBlitz 3.10.0
Version 3.10.0 of the AmiBlitz programming language has just been released. As the developer Sven 'honitos' Dröge writes, he has put a lot of effort into the stability of the overall package and fixed many bugs. The changes at a glance:

PED
  • fixed problem when reloading source file with same file name but different paths
  • fixed a gotoline bug, gotoline now displays the current line number instead of "0"
  • fixed several mungwall hits reported by MuGuardianAngel
  • rewrite of printing routines, source drawing ia now much faster
  • rewrite of block selection routine
  • killing a block selection will now join both lines enclosing the selection
  • improved rendering of cursor
  • removed support for italic remarks
  • changed behaviour of "Save & Create executable": if the filenames are known, PED will not ask for them each time
  • added wheelmouse support to sourcebrowser window
  • added tooltip on file tab
  • added symbols for debugging mode and tokenization mode in message line
  • added feature if mouse click is done with LSHIFT, a block will be selected
REDDebugger

  • fixed bug crashing on Kick 2.0 due to usage of HelpControl() that is only available with Kick2.1
  • started to improve GUI by switching to gadtools for some windows
Compiler
  • fixed "Could not allocate memeory" bug in CLI-mode
  • fixed bug that corrupted the cli-structure of the shell in CLI-mode
  • fixed bug that prevented upper case file extentions
  • fixed an openlibrary call before adding local libs-directory to LIBS:-assign
  • fixed several mungwall hits reported by MuGuardianAngel
  • new feature for userlibs: if a lib is placed in that drawer that libnumber is already loaded, it will replace the already loaded blitzlib. That simplifies testing libchanges a lot

Asteroids-style dogfights: Hyper Wings 2.21 (update)
Christian Geldmann's "Hyper Wings" (video) is a shooter developed in assembler, in which two human or computer-controlled combatants fight each other with a control system borrowed from Asteroids. Version 2.2 - tagged as the "final release" by the author - offers the following new features:
  • New weapon (gravity bomb): missile which creates a point of high gravity, which attracts only your opponent. Contact with that point recudes energy of your opponent.
  • problems with the speed of the intro screen solved.
  • extended main music tune
  • A new nasty gimmick, which inverts left/right of your Joystick for a short time.
  • Extended game intro
  • Bugfixes
Hyper Wings has been optimised for the Amiga 500 (1 MB RAM, OCS), but also runs on all other Amigas.

Update: (14.03.2025, 22:10, dr)

Version 2.21 offers better performance and stability. (dr)
