Tech demo of an arcade game: RemGame
'RemGame' (video) is the author's first C/ASM project on the Amiga. He describes it as a "tech demo", and he has yet to come up with a game design to go with it. RemGame uses a sprite multiplexer and can thus display up to 104 moving sprites. The colours of the sprites are changed via copper list in each grid line. Together with the scrolling background displayed in HAM mode, up to 1400 colours are displayed on the screen simultaneously, even on an A500. In a forum discussion, the author answers users' questions and offers the current version for download.

The Amiga as a musical instrument: Paulimba
Linus 'lft' Åkesson has been an active part of the demoscene for a good 25 years, composing music for numerous demos and music discs for Amiga and C64 as 'Lairfight' or 'lft'. Last year he built "The Commodordion": an 8-bit accordion consisting mainly of two C64 keyboards, floppy disks and gaffer tape. As he says himself, he has started programming for the Amiga again after more than 20 years and has now written "Paulimba", a program to play live music on the keyboard of an Amiga (600).
