Where to download Amiga games? (logo by The Heretic)

Hi and welcome,

Okay, there are multiple App stores that now exist for the Amiga, and I’d like to compare them all (3 so far). The first one up is the one getting the most publicity so far: AMIStore – the cooperative effort between A-EON (Maker of the AmigaOne x1000 and x5000) and AmigaKit (one of the last, biggest Amiga Online retailers around).

My tests were performed using the OS4.1 version using WinUAE 2.9.0.0b23 and Amiga OS4.1 Classic.

First things first: Check out their introductory preview:

Hi all,

We are approaching December and I thought we could celebrate that by having a quick peek at an old computer magazine I have in my collection. It is the Christmas edition of Amiga Format from 1993. The item is over 20 years old, but it doesn’t feel like it when I’m reading it. Perhaps I’m stuck in an Amiga time bubble or something. :D

WArMUp  (The World Association of MorphOS Users) have yet again started a drive to gather funds for our various developers. This time there are two different fund raisers: one for developers in general and one for the development of the native word processor Calimero, which will be the successor of Scriba.

Good evening,

Hello again,

Two days ago I wrote about Czeslaw Mnich and his compilation of maps and characters for Gloom on the Amiga.

Amiwest has come and gone for another year and I'm now back in the New Zealand as the Southern hemisphere heads towards Christmas. I don't think my Northern hemisphere imprinted brain will ever come to terms with "winter" being summer time down under.

As several other attendees have already have posted excellent blogs I decided not to write an Amiwest report this year, but I do have a few Amiwest highlights/tidbits to share:

Exciting for me is the release of the E-UAE JIT Beta 5 (Feature complete) with the updated RunInUAE Beta to use it on my X1000.

Good evening,

Just a heads-up this evening, as I discovered that a pack with brand new maps and characters had been released for the Doom-clone Gloom Deluxe! Very cool! Looking forward to try it out on my A1200.

Following on from my initial installation blog entry for the recently released Icaros Desktop 2.0 on my Acer AspireOne ZG5, I had a bit more of a play with it this weekend also.

Hi everyone,

I have just discovered that hostcove compiled a nice video of lots of demos running on Amiga X1000.

I was too lazy for a power demonstration like this one, so I kindly borrow his work... Enjoy!
(No, it is not Rickrolling, I promise! ;))

Big thanks to hostcove for his efforts!
