Preview video: Hyperborea (Resurrected) #3
Daniel 'Daytona675x' Müßener is in the process of continuing "Hyperborea", a project started four years ago and interrupted in the meantime (YouTube videos) (amiga-news.de reported). Technically, the game is as good as finished. Changes of the third preview video:
  • fat laser shot: this is your secondary weapon. It's stronger than the spread-shot, but - guess what - doesn't spread. Also, your ship moves at half speed when this is fired. Very good to dodge dense bullet curtains. A double-click toggles between the two weapon types. Don't worry: your gun will still continue firing when you shortly lift your thumb for this action.
  • sprite priorities: in 2p mode the player / player-shot sprites' priorities are alternating each frame now. So in even frames all the stuff of player 1 is drawn on top of player 2 and in odd frames player 2 and its shots occlude player 1. This effectively results in both player-ships and -shots being visible all the time. Before this change player 1 and its shots always overpainted all the 2nd player's stuff.
  • a logo screen ;)
  • main menu (not fully functional as of yet)

Commotron (ANF)


Wireless Gamepad: Turbo 2000 Super V2
The Turbo 2000 Super gamepad from Commotron is wireless and has a fourth fire button for jumping (amiga-news.de reported). Now the manufacturer is showing a revised and, with a recommended retail price of 29.90 euros, cheaper version 2 of the pad on Facebook, which is said to have already arrived at the first dealers and is also available in two additional designs: Commodore Cream and Sinclair Spectrum.

The Turbo 2000 Super V2 offers an additional two-pin connector header on the dongle, so that one can solder a two wire cable into the computer or gaming console and connect two independent buttons to the dongle. For example one can connect buttons from Gotek Drive selectors, Reset button and Game-Select buttons, or turbo-module buttons to the dongle. With a new mapping selection one can trigger those two buttons wirelessly from the gamepad by pressing Fire 2 or 3 for one of the two pins. Pin 1 or Pin 2 on the header connector will deliver Ground (GND) signal when pressing Fire Button 2 or 3. (snx)

Diskmag: Last issue of Jurassic Pack released
Lars Sobiraj wrote: Today, after almost two years, the 20th and probably last issue of the Jurassic Pack was published (amiga-news.de reported). This demoscene discmag looks back on a long history. The pre-issue appeared 18.5 years ago at a French demo party called Gasp.

A few highlights: Interview with Peter Baustaedter, a scene graphic designer who managed to go from Austria to Hollywood with Arnold Schwarzenegger's help. He was involved in the creation of the films "Avatar", "Jumper", "The Fifth Element" and many more.

Interview with Amiga graphic artist Danny Geurtsen, who is also successful in the games and film industry. Geurtsen has worked on "Charlie and the Chocolate Factory", "Passengers", "The Martian", "Maleficent", "Gravity", "Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets", "Underworld", "Space Odyssey" and "The Avengers", to name but a few.

Alexander Scheel transported the popular demo Odyssey from Alcatraz from 1991 into the present with the help of the ray tracing tool Blender.

However, there are numerous other items to discover in the Amiga version.

Flappy Bird clone: Amiga Flappy Ace v1.02 (update)
After Amiga conversions of the game Flappy Bird using RedPill (Happy Bat), the Scorpion Engine (Flighty Fox) and AmiBlitz3 (Börd), Jose has now written "Amiga Flappy Ace" using the Amiga C Engine (ACE), which should also run quickly on an A500. The game serves the developer as a tech demo for a planned, larger project. The source code is available on GitHub.

Update: (12.01.2024, 21:49, dr)

Version 1.02 is now available, which fixes a memory leak and the menu text bug. (dr)

Babylon 5: Easter Egg in episode 22 of season 2?
Luke Miller is an indie developer at Classyk Games and has not only developed the space game Liberation, but also seems to be interested in the science fiction genre in general: in a Mastodon post under the title link he probably found an Amiga-Easter-Egg in the 22nd episode of the second season of Babylon 5, where you can see an Amiga boing ball in a scene in the background.

Obligement: Update of Amiga Games List
The Amiga Games List, a document created and maintained by David Brunet since April 1991, was updated on January 8, 2024 with the publication of its 54th edition. Among other new features and corrections, games published or updated in 2023 have been added (194), and games created in HyperBook and PowerD are now accounted for.

In addition, two new licences have been added: 'Hack' (which refers to games derived from other games or published illegally, for example without the consent of the original author), and "Sustainable Use License", a new open licence. In addition, where possible, the name of the publisher of public domain games (CAM, Spielekiste, itch.io...) has been added.

The total now stands at 14258 entries, including games, level editors, data disks, extensions and interpreters, distributed as follows:
  • 13521 games
  • 432 extensions and data disks
  • 154 game or level editors
  • 151 interpreters
For the record, the number of native AmigaOS 4 games has now passed the 1000 mark. (snx)

Game Construction Kit: Scorpion Engine 2023.5
The "Scorpion Engine" (video of development of vertical scroll demos) by Erik 'earok' Hogan enables the development of games. The engine itself is not open source, but all included demos and demo games are. The editor itself runs on Windows. Graphics are imported as PNG files, for level creation the editor Tiled is used. For sounds, music and animations Amiga formats (mod, 8svx, anim5) are used. Changes of version 2023.5:
  • Animation editor has been updated to make it much easier to trigger custom events on frames, including audio, shooting other actors, setting direction and speed - as well as the ability to have numerous melee collision boxes on every frame.
  • "Intellibox" allows you to type in a number of code commands directly into the code tab.
  • Dynamic Patterns allows levels on Mega Drive to have massive tilesets.
  • Ability to freeze and unfreeze actors.
  • Many bug fixes and performance enhancements.
  • New game: Merry Xmas

AmiFox: Download of itch.io archives
Marcus 'ALB42' Sackrow's "AmiFox" displays modern web pages on an Amiga by downloading and displaying the pages converted into images by a web rendering proxy ("AmiFox server"). Besides Aminet, itch.io is one of the central sources for current Amiga software. Following our tip, the developer has now dealt with the problem that it is not possible to download software from there with currently available browsers under AmigaOS 3, and shows in a YouTube video a first possibility to do this via AmiFox.

Tool: identify-library 44.0
Today Richard Körber has released version 44.0 of his identify.library (amiga-news.de reported). Changes:
  • Added a few more boards
  • Emu68 (PiStorm light) is now detected and properly shown as CPU/FPU/MMU.
  • Until now, identify only estimated the MMU depending on the system's CPU, and was wrong with 68EC030 machines and some accelerator boards. 68851 MMU chips were not detected at all. Starting with v44, the mmu.library is used now. If it is present, identify will return an accuate result.

Shoot'em Up: "Skillgrid" V1.4
In early 2019, Simone 'saimo' Bevilacqua released his abstract, vertical shoot'em up SkillGrid (YouTube video). Changes to version 1.4:
  • Added cells field flashing when these cells (are about to) appear:
    • ASTEROIDS cell (bright colors);
    • BEAM/* cells, if their exit from the bottom of the screen would reduce the number of beams shot by the spaceship (bright colors);
    • MOTHERSHIP, MUSIC MODE, SKULL (same colors of the cells field when the associated boss/mode is active).
  • Made the spaceship flash red when its shield is low.
  • Made the spaceship glow red for half a second when its shield gets damaged.
  • Made the middle layer appear progressively at the beginning of a game.
  • Made the cells layer populate with empty cells progressively.
  • Changed a few pixels of the title screen spaceship icon and of the Skull.
  • Improved the handling of audio channels.
  • Made sure no sprite tearing occurs when switching between screens.
  • Made sure that the system MMU setup does not interfere.
  • Fixed crash when a tune was started while another tune was playing (e.g. when the MUSIC MODE cell was caught while missiles were active).
  • Fixed the stopping of the music mode music (it inhibited the restart of the spaceship afterburner sound).
  • Fixed the X position of specifically-requested cells (it was equal to the type of the cell removed at the same time).
  • Fixed the lengths of some sounds samples (they were odd).
  • Made various speed and memory optimizations.
  • Made the startup and cleanup code more robust.
  • Worked on the cells:
    • improved the handling of the TURN cell (now it is randomized and it ensures that the speeds of the UFOs will always change);
    • increased the frequency of the MUSIC MODE cells;
    • decoupled the randomization of the cells types and positions;
    • created the BOSSES (virtual) class of cells, grouping the BOLTSPITTER and SKULL cells (previously MALUSES) and the MOTHERSHIP cell (previously UNDEFINED) into it;
    • made the template of the BOLTSPITTER and SKULL cells striped;
    • made the template of the TURN cell fringed;
    • made the template of the BEAM/DOUBLE cell equal to that of the other BEAM/* cells.
  • Worked on the audio channels allocation priorities of the sound effects:
    • given the Boltspitter bolt shooting and the hitting of the spaceship by the Mothership beam priority over the milestone notification;
    • assigned the speech warnings specific priorities (from lowest to highest: "charge low", "shield low", "approaching asteroids", "escapes critical", "danger", "time running out").
  • Updated/improved the documentation. 19. Updated the artwork to reflect the new cells graphics.

Apollo cards: File sharing tool "ApolloExplorer" v1.1.1 (update)
ApolloExplorer is a simple file exchange programme that can be used to transfer files from a PC to an Amiga running an Apollo card and vice versa over the network. A server software runs in the background on the Amiga and allows a client running on a PC with Windows, Linux or MacOS to connect to the Amiga and browse the local hard drives. Changes in version 1.1.0:
  • Supports displaying of Amiga icons
  • Icon mode is back in the file lister
  • A new command line utility "acp" (works like scp on linux).
Update: (07.01.2024, 18:49, dr)

Meanwhile version 1.1.1 is available which fixes a crash that happens with corrupted .info files and restores the disk usage gauges. (dr)
