Video: AMOS-controlled Quiz Buzzer System
In his latest video series, Robert Smith shows how to build an AMOS-controlled quiz buzzer system based on an Arduino board:
- Part 1 shows how to build a cable version of the simple quiz buzzer system that includes different sound effects for each key pressed.
- Part 2 shows how to build a wireless variant using nRF24L01 modules and Arduinos.
- Part 3 updates the wireless variant so that the controller can be connected to an Amiga and a simple quiz system can be run with AMOS. The AMOS quiz system communicates with the controller via the serial port and uses some form of interrupts ("every") to maintain communication.

Preview video: Kung Fu action 'Devil's Temple'
Devil's Temple features 10 stages of intense arcade kung fu action based on the classic Irem games Kung Fu Master and Vigilante. Over 300 frames of animation were packed into the game and every cycle of performance was used on the Amiga A500. The game will adapt to upgrades, so additional chip ram will result in better music, AGA will provide additional colors and a greater variety of enemies in the game.

MorphOS: Web browser Wayfarer 3.9
Jacek 'jacadcaps' Piszczek has released version 3.9 of his Wayfarer web browser for MorphOS, which mainly includes changes for media playback. As the author writes, ClearKey encryption is not very popular nowadays, but is still used by some live streaming services. Wayfarer can now play these streams (e.g. https://tv.nrk.no).
The emulation of touch events makes it possible to search on mobile Youtube again. In this regard, the developer refers to the updated FAQ page: instructions on how to fix Youtube/iOS search and how to use a VPN with Wayfarer (with additional hardware) have been added.
Jacek also thanks everyone who had donated to the project in the last. He said that this is a motivation for further development. Changes:
