`03.Jan.2024`	Individual Computers: Buddha Plus One can be preordered Press release: The new Buddha Plus One IDE controller adds new features to a 27-year old design that has been extremely successful over the decades. We're proud to say that even after 38 years of Amiga history, we've introduced novel design ideas how to make installation easier, less error-prone and much friendlier in terms of preservation of the original cases. Read all about the new features and ideas on the Buddha Plus One product page. Shipments will start in late January 2024. If you order a Buddha Plus One and an X-Surf-100 networking card during the pre-order phase, we'll give you 15,- EUR off the total(*). Unfortunately, this shop system can't do that automatically or with a voucher code. If you pay with a wire transfer, just deduct 15,- EUR from the total quoted by the shop, and if you pay with PayPal, we'll make a 15,- EUR refund on the next business day. (dr) [News message: 03.

`02.Jan.2024`	Puzzle game: Spheroid In April 2022, we introduced the puzzle game, which was still in development at the time, in detail, and now Andrew Vaisey has published "Spheroid" (YouTube video). He had already started writing Spheroid in AMOS in the mid-90s. When he restored all the data from his old HD some time ago, the AMOS version no longer ran. However, he liked the idea of the game and so he rewrote it from scratch in Blitz Basic 2. It offers 50 levels and requires at least 1MB of RAM. (dr) [News message: 02.

`02.Jan.2024`	Game development: IFF/ILBM exporter v1.3 for Aseprite Recently We introduced a script written by Prismatic Realms for the image editor Aseprite that converts graphics into an IFF/ILBM file. Version 1.3 has now been released with the following changes: Aseprite documents where the cel image size is larger than the sprite size are now exported correctly to IFF. Transparent colour index is now handled properly. You can now draw your sprites using a transparent background if you wish. Those transparent pixels will be translated to the colour index that you've defined as your transparent colour (which you can see/alter in Aseprite by selecting the "Sprite" --> "Properties" menu option.)
