`04.Jan.2020`	Arcade classic: Bagman Jean-François Fabre ported his SDL-based clone of the arcade classic Bagman to the Amiga, which required SDL libraries and thus a graphics card. Now a port is available which directly uses the chipset graphics of the Amiga. Bagman requires 2 MB RAM, ECS and at least a 68020 processor. The source codes of the game which was written in C++ are available on Github. (cg) (Translation: dr) [News message: 04.

`02.Jan.2020` Amigaworld.net (Webseite)	AmigaOS 4: MiniGL for GL4ES Daniel Müßener's MiniGL for GL4ES ("MiniGL4GL4ES"), which is available in a first alpha version, allows also users of Polaris graphics cards to play a lot of the MiniGL games under AmigaOS 4. MiniGL is based on Warp3D which has never been adapted for Polaris graphics cards while the OpenGL implementation GL4ES is based on OpenGLES2 - written by the same author - which uses Warp3D Novas. Thanks to Hans de Ruiter it supports Polaris graphics cards. But currently there is an important limitation: You should not run more than one MiniGL application simultaneously. You can find notes on known errors under the title link. Download: minigl4gl4es.lha (993 KB) (snx) (Translation: dr) [News message: 02.
