Game Construction Kit: RedPill 0.9.41
RedPill, developed by Carlos Peris, is a game construction kit written in Amiblitz 3.99, which allows the development of games from various genres (e.g. Agonman). RedPill (YouTube video shows improved support of moving platforms) is compatible with AGA and ECS, the "player" for playing the finished creations requires a total of 1.5 MB RAM. Jens 'Farbfinsternis' Henschel has written a tutorial.
All changes of updated version 0.9.41:
- Image to tiles now can open a large image containing a map, extract its
tileset, and optionally recreate this map in the current level.
- Image to tiles checksum has been improved to avoid duplicates.
- Now you can select the spritesheets to use for each Level, saving some
valuable Chip Memory.
- The used spritesheets in the level can be automatically calculated by the
editor.
- In Tileset Menu, Image to tiles can now be used to open a large image with a
game map. The routine will generate all the tiles for this map, and will give
the possibility to generate the level map as well.
- In Objects Menu, in the Advanced section you can define the maximum speed you
want your object to move. Useful for example, when you do not want your object
to fall too fast.
- Fetch mode Quadruple can now be used with Screen Widths: 320, 288 and 256.
Using it will speed up games for AGA Amigas without FastRAM.
- Added a project named BobPerfTest to be able to check performance with the
different fetch modes.
- Added action trigger Follow Object Free, works as previous one but instead of
using 8 directions for moving, movement is smooth vector based.

Using image files and discs in PC drives: DiskFlashback v1.0.2
Developer Rob Smith has written DiskFlashback, a convenient software for Windows 10/11 (64-bit) that enables PC floppy drives to read and write image files such as ADFs (Amiga Disk Files) during operation. It also allows you to process real discs in Amiga or Atari format, with the appropriate hardware extensions. To use it, you need the FloppyBridge plugin, which in turn requires additional hardware (amiga-news.de reported). Now he has released version 1.0.2 of the software. Changes:
- Sped up the Greaseweazle track reading speed by almost double
- Sped up the Supercard PRO track reading speed by almost double
- Small speed up for DrawBridge reading too!
- Sped up disk writing as well!
- Added special message for people just trying to run the DiskFlashback EXE and wondering why it doesn't do anything
- Added new "Clean Drive Heads" option for real floppy drives (cleaning disk required)
- Re-arranged all physical drive related commands into its own menu
- Added option to toggle the auto-starting up the system tray icon with Windows
- Changed how new versions of the application are detected to hopefully get around some previous false positives
- Mount physical Amiga HD/Memory Card disks as drive letters (OFS/FFS/PFS only)
- Can now detect Amiga hard disk partitions when RDSK block is not on the first block (can be upto 64 blocks in)
- Better / quicker cooldown if disk is removed from physical drive while its being read
- Added support for DSK (MSX) files as they're basically FAT12 PC disks
- Fixed a bug with some DMS files where the total number of cylinders was incorrectly read
- Fixed potential re-entry bug from aborting some operations and turning off the drive motor
- Fixed issues with SuperCard PRO board not seeking to the correct track [FloppyBridge]
- Fixed an issue where some SCP files wouldn't load at all
- Fixed some issues with some dual-format disk images not showing both parts
- Fixed issues with Tri-format disks (they're actually dual-format really)
- Fixed an issue with dual-format disks where number of heads was incorrectly used for PC/Atari side
- Fixed issue where re-reading bad Amiga sectors didn't work properly
- Fixed a strange seek issue when ejecting real floppy disks
- Fixed issue with some dialogs disappearing behind explorer after message was shown
- Fixed an issue where changing file attributes (Amiga) caused the Readable/Delete attributes to become unset
- EXEs etc are now digitally signed

Book: German edition of "The Making of Prince of Persia" now available
Jordan Mechner is an internationally renowned game designer whose best-known work is probably "Prince of Persia". Mechner recorded the creation of this global hit in his memoirs, which he wrote down during development and published in 2020 (amiga-news.de reported). The book has now been published in German, translated and edited by Stephan Freundorfer: "Jordan Mechner: Die Erschaffung von Prince of Persia – Tagebücher 1985-1993" (original title: The Making of Prince of Persia) invites the reader into the wild, golden 8- and 16-bit era and lets them participate in the restless life of a young creative who is looking for his place between screen and pixels – and becomes famous. Mechner's memories and sketches are historical documents, very personal insights into early game development and the emergence of digital narratives.
The officially licensed version of the 1985-1993 diaries presents Mechner's original drawings, design documents and business records. Also included in the German translation are appendices with explanations of people, companies, contemporary terms and games.
The hardcover version of the title comprises 368 pages, completely in colour, with over 300 illustrations and can be ordered at a price of 34.80 euros from well-stocked bookshops and directly from the publisher Gameplan via the title link. (nba)

Blog: The Effect of CRTs on Pixel Art
The Swedish technology nerd and software developer Carl Svensson has published a new article entitled "The Effect of CRTs on Pixel Art" on his website datagubbe.se. In it, he discusses how CRTs smoothed out the hard edges and block structures of old video game graphics through their blurring and artefacts such as scan lines and colour overlays. Svensson also points out that modern techniques such as anti-aliasing and dithering, which contribute to smoothing and colour blending, enhanced the visual experience on CRTs, which is often misunderstood when pixel art is displayed on modern flat screens. To visualise these effects, Svensson also shows images from games and applications for the Amiga, including Ruff'n'Tumble, Monkey Island, Silkworm and Deluxe Paint IV. (nba)

Gimmick: Humourful assessment of a GitHub account
To "roast" someone means to mock and belittle them in a humorous way and is usually meant in a nice way. This tradition became particularly popular in the USA through the "Dean Martin Show" (see Wikipedia article). The user 'codenoid' has now applied this concept to GitHub accounts: all you have to do is enter the username of an account on the website set up under the title link and you will receive an amusing summary of the activities and projects (including translation into the desired language) with the help of AI.
We have been reporting on Richard Körber's projects, who also has a GitHub account, for some time now. He has kindly agreed to let us take the piss out of him here... Thank you! :)
"Richard Körber, huh? "Open Source developer and Java professional"? More like a wannabe coder stuck in a retro time warp! Your "little private computer museum" sounds suspiciously like a last-ditch attempt to gather all the discarded tech you couldn't bear to part with. With 71 public repos, it's impressive how you've managed to wring out so little attention – a whopping 0 stars on your computer museum? That's some real dedication to mediocrity!
Your stargazers count speaks volumes: maybe a grand total of 501 on "acme4j," but let's be honest; it's not like you're pulling in celebrity-level applause. A whopping 57 followers? It seems like half of them must've hit that follow button on accident! Java enthusiast? More like Java aficionado of obscurity. And what's with the retro obsession? Are you trying to resurrect the 80s or just desperately holding on to some nostalgia? Get it together, Richard - it's time to evolve from your basement's computer graveyard."

Video: Image and music editing possible with the A600GS?
YouTuber 'Proteque' took a look at the now available A600GS computer (amiga-news.de reported), particularly with regard to image and music editing. His conclusion: he has high hopes for the future and is happy to support the project, but currently it was not in a state he can enjoy it. In his opinion, the computer is not intended for the "casual gamer", but for Amiga enthusiasts. What bothers him most at the moment are the slowdowns in the desktop environment due to the 68k emulation and the fact that OctaMED does not start, but this should be fixed this week.
As Amiga Kit explains in response to our article, four system updates have been released since the video was published, which have fixed most of the bugs. OctaMED, for example, is now running smoothly again, as a problem with the stack of fonts in the disc font library has been fixed.

Amiga Kit: A600GS available / Paolo Cattani games pre-installed
Press release (PDF): Cardiff, 4th August 2024
Famous Amiga games developer, Paolo Cattani (interview from 2019) has provided his classic Amiga games to be pre-installed on the new A600GS computer.
Virtual GP and Thunderhell are installed ready to play on the A600GS. Existing A600GS users can download a free update to install the games to the games menu.
Virtual GP was sadly Paolo's last production for the Amiga range of computers shortly after Commodore's bankruptcy. He wanted to to contribute to the Amiga games scene so started the development of Virtual GP (codename AlienF1). VGP would have to accomplish two missions: on the one hand, it would implement a fast 3D engine aimed at hi-specification Amigas (AGA and 68030 required) featuring gouraud shading, texture mapping, billboarding, curved surfaces and all the things that were "hot" at those times; on the other hand, it had to be the most realistic simulation of a Formula One car available on the Amiga.
Thunderhell is a classic shoot-em-up game. The game is an horizontal scrolling (with three levels of parallax), fast paced shoot'em up full of enemies, bullets, explosions and all the bells and whistles that one could expect from a game of that genre.
Matthew Leaman, MD of AmigaKit Ltd commented on the collaboration: "We are thrilled that Paolo has agreed to include his great games with the A600GS.
We are grateful for his support of our project."
Paolo Cattani added: "As a pioneer in the development of video games for the Amiga range of computers I'm very glad and honoured to give my contribution to an amazing project which keeps alive the memory of a machine that was such a glorious milestone of the IT history."
The A600GS is available for around 130 euros (plus shipping) at AmigaKit.com or for around 155 euros (plus shipping) at AmigaKit.fr. (dr)

Tutorial: Creating a Kickstart disk for the Amiga 1000 with WinUAE (German)
Already in mid-July Domingo Fivoli has described how to create a Kickstart disk for the Amiga 1000 in his german Commodore blog at the title link. For this he used the emulator package Amiga Forever and the Amiga Explorer, whereby the kickstart data was read from an Amiga with GrabKick, transferred with CrossDOS and finally written to a disk image file using the program WriteKickDisk.

Game announcement: Video about "Dungeonette - The New Adventure" (update)
Adrian Cummings (Mutation Software) has published a short video at the title link on the current state of development of his game "Dungeonette - The New Adventure", which is announced to be released at the end of the year for AGA Amigas including the Amiga CD³².
In a forum the author explained: "It will run on stock Amiga AGA and CD³² with 2 MB Chip-RAM and of course [on THEA500 Mini] etc. It is a hybrid of many games in reality and has some roots in Diablo for sure but also many others as a hack & slash dungeon crawler. Just for the record... Originally the basic game was written for Apple Watch many years back and then also a version was released for Spectrum Next back in 2017/18.
