Amiga Games That Weren't: Der Schatz im Silbersee (The Treasure of Silver Lake)
On Amiga Games That Weren't, information, including a demo version, was compiled in English about the game "Der Schatz im Silbersee" (The Treasure of Silver Lake), an adventure about the fictional American Native Winnetou. Originally also announced for the Amiga for February 1993, it was actually only released for MS-DOS. (In German Amigaland.de had already presented the demo version two and a half years ago). (snx)

Video: Test of a new MOD player for Amigas with low memory
Musician, DJ and developer Ian 'h0ffman' Ford has published a video on YouTube in which he tests his new MOD player for Amigas with little memory, which is currently under development: it is based on Arnaud Carré's "Light Speed Player" (amiga-news.de reported) and in the example a 1.6 MB module is played on an Amiga 500 with 512 Kb chip RAM and 512 Kb slow RAM.
All samples are compressed with a 4-bit delta (see also "Delta coding" by Paul Bourke), which halves the size. Playback is performed using audio interrupts that stream and unpack data. (dr)
