Game announcement: Twin-Stick shooter "Rogue Declan: Zero"
After Nivrig Games had already published some preview videos (amiga-news.de reported), the official game announcement now followed with the opening of the itch.io project site: the twin-stick shooter "Rogue Declan: Zero" (latest YouTube video) will be released this summer and can be played at the Kickstart taking place next weekend in England.

The plot: "The wizards have been at it again, and this time they've accidentally opened Hellgates under the castle! Now it's up to you, brave brave Sir Declan, to search each procedurally generated castle dungeon and find enough magical shards to access and close its gate.

Armed with a magical Caster Sword, potions you find, and perhaps the occasional legendary charm, Sir Declan must fight demons that escaped from the gate, avoid traps, and collect treasures to trade for battle enhancements, before finally facing the Hellgates themselves." Features:
  • 50fps 2D hell-blasting action
  • Billions of procedurally generated dungeons
  • Multiple control schemes,
  • including new Abstraction Games twin-stick controller
  • Online high score table
  • Many enemies and traps to defeat
  • Upgrades to unlock as you progress
  • Legendary artefacts to recover
  • Hapless villagers to save
An Amiga 500 with 512 KB Chip RAM and 512 KB other RAM are required. (dr)

Chat software: AmigaGPT V1.0
Cameron Armstrong has written AmigaGPT, a chat program for AmigaOS 3.2 that uses the power of the chatbot ChatGPT (screenshot). Features:
  • AmigaGPT uses the GPT-4 architecture developed by OpenAI to generate coherent, context-aware responses to your input.
  • AmigaGPT takes full advantage of the latest AmigaOS 3.2 API and does not require any third-party frameworks.
  • AmigaGPT can use the Amiga's speech synthesis capability to read the generated text aloud, using either narrator.device V34 (Workbench 1.x) or narrator.device V37 (Workbench 2.0).
The programme has the following requirements:
  • OCS/ECS/AGA Amiga
  • AmigaOS 3.2 or higher
  • 68020 processor or faster
  • TCP/IP stack for Internet access
  • AmiSSL 5.9
  • an OpenAI account with an active API key
  • optional: narrator.device V34 and/or narrator.device V37
Direct download: AmigaGPT.lha (196 KB) (dr)

Compression of executable files: Body Guard Packer 5.6
Lorence Lombardo's "bgpk" is a 68k executable file packer which, according to the developer, makes it possible to protect programs, improve compatibility with programs intended for a Unix-like operating system, and use some of the latest compression technologies.

The program requires AmigaOS 2.x. On systems with a version 1.3 Kickstart ROM, execution of programs packed in this way is prevented, so crashes are avoided. As a further difference to other packers for executable files, programs compiled with vbcc, for example, could also be compressed. In addition, bgpk does not perform hunk sorting or stripping, so that files packed with it are restored to their original state after unpacking. (snx)

Amiga-Look.org: VisualPrefs themes by HanSOLO
Amiga-Look is inspired by offerings like KDE-Look and Gnome-Look and is supposed to offer the user a one-stop source for everything he needs to beautify his Workbench: Pictograms, themes and background images, but also MUI settings or mouse pointers.

Already at the end of May Roger Andre Lassen published four VisualPrefs themes there. These were created on an Amiga with PerfectPaint and require FullPalette and in one case, the Concept theme, also Birdie. (snx)
