19.01.2024 - Amiga game 'Wizonk!' - test version released
Enter the arena and fight off three friends (or enemies) with a range of mystical powers! The aim of the game is to be the last spellcaster standing, by any means necessary. This is the first multiplayer test for Wizonk, supporting 2-4 players, either using a parallel port Multitap or two players on joystick with two on keyboard (currently a bit janky) - Wizonk’s core multiplayer component is free (pay what you feel), but in time there will be an enhanced, more fleshed out Wizonk+ with a single player / cooperative campaign, available commercially.

11.01.2024 - Amiga game 'Flappy Ace' released - free for download
This a flappy bird clone made for the Amiga 500 computer. It should also work for all Amigas versions (but hasn't been tested) since it's using relatively primitive and basic graphics and isn't interacting much with the OS.

09.01.2024 - 'BOFH: Servers Under Siege' v1.1 for C64 released - free for download
It's a fan-made video game for the PC and the C64 developed by Covert Bitops. Based on the Bastard Operator from Hell stories, the game features the titular BOFH finding out that his workplace has been taken over by terrorists. Already released in 1998, this new Version 1.1 from 2024 is a mod that adds the possibility of maneuvering the protagonist using the standard directions of the joystick and with the help of 2nd fire you can reuse the original use of the joystick (forward/backward, turn right/turn left). This mod was made for people like me who found the original movement mode really uncomfortable...

...from time to time, some thoughts need to get out...Farewell Patrick!
Author: Zeldin - written on 31.12.2014
Axis/Cascade is no more. We are all still shaken by the unexpected death of our friend and group mate Patrick aka Axis/Cascade. We wanted to express our sorrow, so I coded a little intro, which you can find in the C64 demo section of this page. The following text is a rough excerpt taken from the scroller:
Dear Patrick, may this be the condolence from the the group that was co-founded by you long time ago. We want to give you our last salute. I (Zeldin) know how much you were breathing the spirit of the scene. That's why I thought a goodbye demo would have made you happy. You and me exchanged lots of mails about how much we both enjoyed the good ol' days and of course: how much we miss them... It was this tie that emotionally connected us for over 15 years. Thanks for all your help in supporting the group and your indefatigable endeavour in spreading our name. Your tattoos were legendary! Thanks for your work on fb and youtube. Your channels were appreciated by a lot of people. Thanks for being such a good chap. You'll be sorely missed!!!
Mach's gut, Patrick... den Adler im Herzen, sge4ever!
