Going back to the oldskool: first demo by Amiga alive.

It was about time to create a demo. It runs on MC68000, Kickstart 1.2, 512KB RAM.

 Over the years I have spent considerable time upgrading all of my Amiga systems, with modern operating systems, hardware upgrades, and new software.

It is wonderful we have such an active Amiga community and scene that supports the ongoing release of new games, new hardware and new Amiga operating system upgrades in 2026.

That said, I also like having a simple Amiga 500 system, running Workbench 1.3 and having the software originally released in that era.

Introduction Hi, and welcome to a new edition of the first AmigaOS 4 Monthly Roundup! As I write this it is March 4th. I’m in my office listening to the The Lord of the Rings Online: Shadows of Angmar – Official Game Soundtrack. This music makes it easier for me to write and let the […]

 If you read my blog regularly you may remember a post I did as part of my Amiga 4000T build in 2023 covering (amongst other things) the creation of Amiga format CDXL video files using a docker containerised application running on my Linux PC. These generated CDXL files could then be played on an AGA Amiga using AGABlaster. 

It started with a peaceful vibe—ended with retro panic. Troll down, shelves rattling, Amiga history almost lost!

This looks oddly familiar. But it still doesn't boot AmigaOS 3.2. Sigh. ;-)

British electronic music producer Pete Cannon and his Amiga/AtariST driven studio.

When browsing through AmigaOS developer documentation and C code, there's always a funny, interesting, sometimes enlightening little find.

It's just nice to see how it all ties together, and the changes made from one operating system (API) release to the next. Learning about the infrastructure of software, esp. over multiple versions, exposes some of the thinking process of the operating system developers. 

This is something I have never seen before - a new game in 2026 released simultaneously for Mega65, Gameboy Color and Amiga! Here is Roguecraft DX from Badger Punch Games!

A deep dive article about my experience with Indiana Jones and the Temple of doom, was it good, was it bad, did it represent the movie good?

It’s honestly baffling how a developer like ZZKJ can alternate between sheer brilliance and total a misstep, hitting both extremes.

Yet another find for the "connoisseur". 

It appears that in the 1990s, not only C coders, but also video hardware geeks had a good sense of humour, and since they were both German, they naturally shared the same field of activity in that regard.

We have no reports if the "dirty" text file in question actually enhances the performance of the VLab Motion video capture card. It is very likely, though, that - where allowed - it did enhance the performance of the video editor.

Welcome to 2026! It is good to be back. 

Wings Of Fear is a dream come true project for the developer, i decided to surprise him at his 50th birthday with this strange music video review.

Someone made a delicate little mistake when sending his C code to the publisher in 1990... 

Ah, good old German humour. Thankfully, no reference to the "adult" function in question could be found throughout the book, so it doesn't result in "premature failure" when bedtime-coding your "Amiga".

The dual-Blitt() function may cause some trouble, though, not just because it's dual, but also because no reference to BlittLine() could be found either.
