A Look At: Sky Shapers

Sky Shapers is a high-speed, vertical-scrolling Shoot 'Em Up by Norwegian indie studio Digilicious Nibbles, making their debut on the AGA Amiga. Developed in Blitz Basic and created entirely on classic Amiga hardware, the game runs at a smooth 50 FPS and features handcrafted graphics, three expansive levels, and intense boss battles.

Update 3 for AmigaOS 3.2

Yesterday, Hyperion Entertainment once again proved its commitment, releasing another update for AmigaOS 3.2.

It's update no. 3 for this version of AmigaOS, and it includes new Kickstart ROM version 3.2.3. The release contains a multitude of bugfixes and little enhancements, among which are updates to ReAction classes, TextEditor, DiskDoctor, HDToolbox, and some memory optimization that frees 12KB of ChipRAM. 

Head over to Hyperion's website for more details, and download (for registered users):

Lara Croft (literally) runs on the Amiga!

A lot of people have been waiting for this - the time has come: play "Tomb Raider" on your Amiga!

This popped up just hours ago. Ok, it's "OpenLara", and so far only a proof of concept / tech demo - some features are missing - but it's the actual Tomb Raider-ess, it runs very smooth on a PiStorm, and from what we're hearing so far, it's even playable on a 68030. That's quite a lot!
