04.07.2021 - C64 port of 'Galaga' released as preview for download
This port of the old arcade classic is currently still a preview version so that the developer can gather feedback on how it feels compared to the arcade, how much interest there is (the final version will be free of course) and some bug reports while he takes a little break from it. There are debug symbols in the right panel so any screenshots or videos of bugs can be put into some context. it's currently PAL only but I'll work on that.

29.06.2021 - Amiga game 'MeMo' V3.13 released
MeMO is a card memory game whose peculiarity is that it allows two players to play simultaneously - that is, they can flip cards at the same time and battle for the best score! Also, it does not drive players mad due to bad luck, as unlucky moves are ignored - and, well, to say it all, lucky moves aren't rewarded either.
With its neat graphics, which pay a little tribute to the Amiga and some of its games, and cool music, MeMO will take you for a pleasant trip down the memory (heh!) lane.

This week on 10 Minute Amiga Retro Cast Doug is upgrading my Amiga 4000 from AmigaOS 3.1.4 up to Amiga OS 3.2 - but this is no ordinary installation. His machine started life as an AmigaOS 3.9 machine for years, and was updated via script to AmigaOS 3.1.4.
