Games competition: Programming a Top Down Racer
At itch.io a 16-bit top down racing developer competition for Amiga and Atari computers was launched. The deadline for entries is September 30, 2020. "Winners will be awarded a Trophy, an option to have their game published on Bitmap Soft" and a share of a prize money of 60, 30 and 10% which still has to be donated by the users - or, if too little money was donated, 100 British pound will be given by the organizers.

Jump'n Run: Mini Zorro as Boxed Edition or free digital version
"Mini Zorro" (video) has been available for some weeks and is another part of a series of Backbone games released by José A. 'Jojo073' Gonzáles and Zoltar under the labels 'Amiga Wave' and 'IronGate' (e.g. Mini Swat). Upon request the digital version is available for free via e-mail. Additionally you can order a physical boxed edition with disks, manual and comic as well as stickers.
A price for the boxed edition has not been given. Other games of the developers could have been purchased for 10 Euro. Mini Zorro requires OCS and at least a 68020 processor. For a better performance, a slightly upgraded A1200 is recommended.

Music game for two mice: AmiSaber
AmiSaber (video) is a clone of the virtual reality game Beat Saber - a rhythm game taking place "in a surrealistic neon noir environment and featuring the player slicing blocks representing musical beats with a pair of contrasting colored sabers." The Amiga port is controlled with two mices and includes all necessary information and tools for creating levels with individual music. The game is supposed to run on an Amiga 500 with harddrive but the author recommends a better setup which is not specified.
