`18.Oct.2023`	Amiga Games That Weren't: Truxz Additional to Fatal Mission, there is another Amiga game started by Ola Zandelin (and Rodrigo Perez) that he did not finish: "Truxz" was supposed to be a 3D racing game with texture mapping. Planned were about nine different types of weapons, many different tracks on different terrain, raytraced graphics and a shop. Again, the developer provides some graphics on his website.

`17.Oct.2023`	Video: Procedurally generated levels in AMOS The procedural generation of levels is a technique for creating game worlds in which one does not create each individual level by hand, but uses algorithms to construct the levels programmatically. This allows for almost unlimited variation and can shorten development time (see the explanatory article on the example of Unity). In his latest video, Rob Smith explains this technique using the example of a future AMOS game for which he has to generate a large number of levels. He also shows how to speed up the algorithm and finally create a simple maze. (dr) [News message: 17. Oct. 2023, 06:29] [Comments: 0] [Send via e-mail] [Print version] [ASCII version]
`17.Oct.2023` Mastodon	Image Gallery: Update of the "Amiga Graphics Archive" The "Amiga Graphics Archive" is dedicated to all kinds of pixel graphics created with the Commodore Amiga between 1985 and 1995. According to the operator, quite a number of remarkable images were created during this period, which he believes should not be gathering dust on some hard drive, hidden in an extra level in a game that is never played, or on a PD collection disk that is almost unknown. These graphics should be accessible to all by presenting them on his website. Somewhat deviating from his own credo, pixel graphics by the Danish graphic artist Facet have been added in the latest Update. (dr) [News message: 17.
