New links on AmigaSource website
For 20 years now Scott Pistorino collects on his site AmigaSource all information around the Amiga. On October 19, 2001 he introduced his project on amiga-news.de. Beside several interviews with Ben Hermans or Fleecy Moss from 2002 there are numerous categories like software, hardware, demos etc. Because Pistorino changed to a new database some time ago, some articles are not yet available again.

A few days ago he published a new update with various links. He is also in the process of rebuilding the site and making all the previous links etc. accessible again. (dr)

Preview video 3: Temptations port for CD32
The developer 'S0Y' is primarily dedicated to converting games to the Amiga platform using the game construction kit RedPill. After his Abu Simbel Profanation project, he has now begun the conversion of Temptations, a platform game originally published for MSX-1 in 1988. The basis for this, however, is a port for Android. With the author's permission, he uses graphics and music, but modifies some of them (amiga-news.de reported).

Yesterday he published a new video presenting the first level of the game including music from audio CD. (dr)

Preview video: Sci-fi racing game "Hyper Runner"
The developer team of Raster Wizards - among others The Shadows of Sergoth or Super Metal Hero - had already announced a new sci-fi racing game "Hyper Runner" for the Amiga two months ago with the release of a first YouTube video. The second video released now shows static objects, more HUD elements (information displays) as well as hard and soft collisions. The game is written in Amiblitz 2 and is more than half finished.

Game Construction Kit: Scorpion Engine V2022.6
The "Scorpion Engine" developed by Erik 'earok' Hogan allows you to develop games. The engine itself is closed source, all demos and example games are open source. The editor runs under Windows. Graphics are imported as PNG files, levels created by using the editor Tiled eingesetzt. For importing and creating sounds, music and animations the Amiga formats (mod, 8svx, anim5) are used.

A few moments ago he has relesaed version 2022.6. It features new demos for performance testing and falling stackable objects, major optimizations, improvements for text, performance scaling, and more.

You can support the developer on his Patreon website. (dr)
