AmigaOS 4: "Otto Matic" and "Billy Frontier" ported
Roman 'kas1e' Kargin has ported two other games to AmigaOS 4:
Pangea Software's "Otto Matic" (YouTube video) was first released for Mac OS 9 and X in 2001 and was included with some Mac models of that time. Kargin further writes about it:
"The game was eventually ported to 32-bit Intel Macs, but it stopped working when macOS 10.15 discontinued 32-bit support. Pangea Software allowed Iliyas Jorio to update the original game to keep it running on today's major desktop platforms. This update aims to be faithful to the original. Elements of the presentation and handling were slightly updated. AmigaOS 4 port is based on Jorio's work and compiled with GCC 11.3.0 and latest GL4ES and SDL2. Video recorded on X5000 with RadeonRX 560 and all latest beta components."
"Billy Frontier" is also from Pangea Software and is an arcade-style action game with a "cowboys in space" theme (YouTube video). The player fights in duels, shootouts and brawls. The game was released in 2003 for PowerPC Macs, the port to AmigaOS 4 is also based on Iliyas Jorio's work.
Both games can be downloaded from OS4Depot. Downloads:
