We've just taken notice that German Amiga online shop Amistore.de has become a victim of the Corona virus pandemic.

This is the first in a loose series of developer logs about projects I'm working on, from little experimental or example code, to more complex ideas. On my quest to create some proper Amiga software - a game! - I have encountered, and will encounter, lots of challenges. 

“April is the cruelest month,” says T. S. Eliot in the opening of his most famous poem, The Waste Land.
