Realtime classic: "Dungeon Keeper" ports for MorphOS, AmigaOS, and AROS
The open-source KeeperFX engine is a reimplementation of the real-time classic Dungeon Keeper; to play, you need the original files from the commercial 1997 release. A few days ago, Yannick 'Papiosaur' Buchy released a MorphOS port that requires at least MorphOS 3.19.

Separately, Steffen Häuser is also working on a port: He's targetting AmigaOS 4 - this version, according to Häuser, "already runs pretty well" (video) - AmigaOS 3, and AROS. The OS3 implementation will require a very fast processor; the developer currently lists PiStorm and emulators as target systems, but hopes to find further opportunities for optimization. Häuser has also already worked on an AROS port, but AmigaOS is currently the priority. (cg)

Text Converter: ConvertMojo
The command-line tool "ConvertMojo" converts documents from various Amiga word processors, MS Word, or PDF and RTF files into plain text, PDF, or RTF. According to the developer, the focus is on "plain text along with text formatting." Headers and footers, embedded images, or complex layouts are not always converted correctly or may even be ignored.

ConvertMojo can read the following text formats:
  • RTF
  • PDF
  • Word 6/95
  • Word 97–2003
  • Word 2007+
  • FinalWriter
  • FinalCopy
  • WordWorth
  • KindWords 1/2/3
  • Excellence!
  • Personal Write
  • WordPerfect
  • ProWrite
  • TransWrite
  • plain text
ConvertMojo was created using AI (Claude Code). It runs on any Amiga with at least Kickstart 2.04. (cg)
