RedPill developed by Carlos Peris is a Game Construction Kit written in AmiBlitz2, which can help developing games of diverse genres - see our little review of two games. RedPill is compatible to AGA and ECS, the "player" requires a total of 1,5 MB RAM.
Changes in version 0.83:
- Compiler changed from Amiblitz 2.44 to Amiblitz 3.8. This has some implications:
- Now lower limit to play games is a Motorola 68000 instead of a 68020.
- There are two editors, one generic and one for 020+.
- When exporting a game you have to select if it is generic or for 020+.
- Performance seems slightly better.
- To avoid compilation issues, some more memory is used by the game player.

Puzzle game: AmiBrixx 2.1 for all Amiga systems
Two weeks ago we reported about version 2.0 of Jörg 'Evil' Renkert's puzzle game AmiBrixx. In this game you try to "elminate groups of stones of the same color. Thereby the other stones will fall down and form new groups. The game ends, when no more groups can be eliminated."
Yesterday the author released version 2.1 providing some minor bug fixes: In the Amiga 68k version now the full screen is used on lower screen solutions (such as HighRes or HighRes Interlaced) which we can confirm by our tests. In the Windows version the game screen moved other windows to top/back sometimes. This was fixed.
The author would be grateful for any feedback including ideas and suggestions for improvement.
