Point'n Click Adventure: First trailer of "Ermentrud"
Timo Kloss writes: "The point'n'click adventure game 'Ermentrud' has a first trailer. It is not final yet, so criticism is very welcome. 'Ermentrud' was originally developed between 2001 and 2004 for Amigas with a graphics card, but then abandoned. It was set in a medieval world and featured an absurd plot with absurd humor. And the hero had a cardboard marche horse.
This year it will be released after all, though not to the extent planned at the time. It will contain all the original graphics, sounds and music, but the plot will be reworked and "rounded". So far only a German version is planned. It is not yet clear if there will be other languages. The game will be available for free."

A-EON is already internally testing Alpha releases of their own operating system
Allegedly, A-EON's OS4 licenses expired quite some time ago and sources
claim the company is not trying to apply for a new one. amiga-news.de has now
received screenshots from an anonymous source that seem to be from a private
forum A-EON is running for their betatesters. The screenshots show a posting
from late May, in which Matthew 'Amigakit' Leaman announces the availability
of the first Alpha release of "Enhancer Software Release V54". The term
"Operating System" is never used, but Leaman's description clearly refers to
a standalone system.

Memory game: MeMO 3.13
Simone 'saimo' Bevilacqua has released an update of his memory game MeMO. His game is based on the classic memory card game but in his port two payers can simultaneously play for getting the best highscore. MeMO requires a 68020 processor and the ECS graphic chip. Changes of this release:
- Fixed a (seemingly innocuous) bug (an OR instruction in place of a MOVE instruction) in card matching code.
- Improved card matching policy by considering it a mistake also when the second card flipped had already been flipped before, even if the first card has been flipped just once and/or its twin card has not been flipped yet.
- Made a couple of tiny optimizations.
- Changed design of 'M' and 'N' letters (they were basically lowercase, which was inconsistent, as the only lowercase letter was supposed to be the 'e' in "MeMO").
- Changed alignment of logo in menu screen by 1 pixel right/down.
- Adapted to and recompiled against further improved custom framework.
- Reworked game icon.
- Added floppy disk and manual icons.
- Improved/extended manual.
