Dungeon Crawler: New "Black Dawn" episode, previous games available as download
Three months ago the expansion package for the Dungeon Crawler Black Dawn Rebirth, called "Black Down Rogue", was announced but now is supposed to be a separate game: The engine was completely rewritten and new graphics will be used. On Indie Retro News you can look at some screenshots.

All previously released games of the series, written in AMOS and BlitzBasic in the 90s, as well as the spin offs 'Parasite' and 'Parasite II' now can be downloaded from the website of the developer Timeslip ("pay what you want"). Three weeks ago, the last part of the series called 'Black Dawn Rebirth' already was made available. (cg) (Translation: dr)

Kipper2K replacement keyboard status
In October 2018 we reported about the plans of the US American shop and reseller "Amiga On The Lake" (AOTL) to pre-finance and then distribute the replacement keyboards developed by 'Kipper2K'. The versions for Amiga 500 and 1200 should be available until Christmas 2018.

In a status update now Jeffery Yoder has written that and why they did not succeed in delivering the keyboards until the end of 2020 to all those users who have reserved them in advance. The current plan is to accomplish that by the end of June of this year, 2021. (dr) (Translation: dr)

Modplayer: AmiModRadio 0.99992
AmiModRadio is "a program to automatically download, extract, and play modules from Aminet." Other websites like Haxor.fi, Modland and Modules.pl are supported as well. A rating function is also included. AmiModRadio is open source, the source code is available on SourceForge and BitBucket. If you want to report bugs then please use the official bugtracker. Any ideas for improving the program are welcome!

The latest version provides a German translation. Additionally, the the logic for ratings was updated and further reduced the number of calls to the Web server. The author fixed some discrepencies between the ratings functions and the Web server and modules are added to the user's local blacklist when rated too low.

Encryption protocol: AmiSSL 4.8 (AmigaOS 3/4)
The open source encryption protocol AmiSSL has been updated to version 4.8 and is fully compatible to IBrowse 2.5.3.

Changes:
  • Updated OpenSSL backend to full compatibility to latest OpenSSL 1.1.1j (16.02.2021) version, which brings security and bug fixes.
  • Updated root certificates to latest Mozilla-based bundle provided by https://curl.se/docs/caextract.html.
  • Fixed corrupted OS3 libamisslauto.a (object name was too long).
  • Tweaked SDK examples and OpenSSL includes to be more compatible with vanilla VBCC and SAS/C compiler installations.
  • Restored SAS/C support to AmiSSL autoopen link library code.
  • Added native VBCC support to AmiSSL autoopen link library code.
  • Added lib/autoinit_amissl_main.c to SDK to allow VBCC, SAS/C and GCC users to compile their own link library, if required.

Turn-based space stategy game: Imperium Terranum 2.811
For a while the source code of the turn-based space strategy game Imperium Terranum 2 is being ported from Pascal to C and adopted to graphic cards. In version 2.811 some minor bugs have been fixed:
  • Wormhole-flights are now mouse-controlled - same/easier difficulty than with joystick.
  • Playsound is now stereo - direction depends on mouse-position (as used to be in original game).
In this version the intro-sequence may crash when terminated early (via mousebutton). (cg) (Translation: dr)
