`02.Jun.2025`	Shoot'em up: Demo version of AmiSeaFox "Amiten Games" has created a conversion of the shoot'em up classic Seafox for the Amiga (video) and has now released a first demo version. Using a submarine, you have to destroy the entire enemy before the torpedoes or fuel run out. The game runs on an Amiga 500 with 512 KB RAM expansion, an Amiga 1200 is recommended.

`01.Jun.2025` ALB42 Blog (ANF)	Hunkster: Amiga and Linux versions Marcus 'ALB42' Sackrow has created an Amiga and a Linux version of the program Hunkster by 'RetroNick'. The Amiga version also has a MUI interface. The program can be used to load media files as hunk files into the Amiga's working memory, also specifically into the chip or fast RAM. When writing C or Pascal programs, their addresses in memory can then be transferred to a variable or an array and used for playback in order to integrate them into the executable file during compilation. The source code of Hunkster is available on GitHub. (snx) [News message: 01. Jun. 2025, 07:12] [Comments: 0] [Send via e-mail] [Print version] [ASCII version]

`28.May.2025` Steffen Häuser (ANF)	RetroArch port for AmigaOS in progress Steffen Häuser is working on a port of RetroArch for AmigaOS and AmigaOS 4 - this is a modular emulator system in which only the cores for the different systems are exchanged. After completion, the conversion will be available free of charge in Aminet and OS4Depot, the latter already contains a package with the first cores. He writes (translation) about his port: "I am currently in the process of porting the modular emulator system RetroArch to AmigaOS. Currently there is already a beta version for AmigaOS 4 and a beta version for AmigaOS 3.x (PiStorm 4 or at least PiStorm recommended). The WarpOS version is unfortunately not yet running, but is also being worked on. If you don't know RetroArch - it's a modular system where things like video refresh, sound, joystick etc. are done by a central program, and the emulators (like PC-Engine, NeoGeo, NES, Gameboy, ...) then only have to implement the "core". There is a very large field of emulator cores for RetroArch, which can then also be ported relatively easily (some more, some less) to AmigaOS. And you don't have to program video refresh, sound etc. for every emulator from scratch. RetroArch also offers a nice GUI. RetroArch also offers a comfortable GUI for operation. I offer the current beta version to anyone who sends (for example) 10-15 Euro to my PayPal account (tirionareonwe AT gmail.com) as a donation (in case of a donation, please provide an e-mail address to which the beta version should be sent). The final version will then be published free of charge on OS4Depot and Aminet. You can also have a look at the video here. (The NeoGeo CD core is not yet included in the video, as it has only been running for a very short time). There are already a lot of cores, but there is certainly room for improvement.I might want to take a look at a Mame core and possibly also a ScummVM core at some point, once the basic version is ready."
