APC&TCP also takes over digital distribution of "Amiga Joker" magazine
Press release: APC&TCP is pleased to announce that we are now taking over the digital distribution of the game magazine "Amiga Joker". The PDF file (and of course also the print edition) of issue 1/17 of the "Amiga Joker" is now available in the online shop at the title link.
About Amiga Joker:
Amiga Joker was Germany's first and largest trade magazine for Amiga games and delighted its readers from issue 11/1989 to issue 10-11/1996 with a refreshing writing style, distinctive test reports and unbeatable authors. So it happened that even today many are still waiting for the next edition, which was announced for November 29, 1996 but unfortunately never was published.
After a short break, Dr. Freak, Brork, Mixer, the Joker and the team are back: At the community event Amiga32 in Neuss, on October 28, 2017 a completely new and limited edition of the Amiga Joker was presented - freshly prepared by the original Amiga Joker team, in the original Amiga Joker layout.
From enthusiasts for fans!
With 44 pages
Topics of the issue include:
- New games 2018: This is how RESHOOT R is created
- Old versus new: Settlers, Lotus, Stardust - Amiga classics vs. current hits
- Amiga Joker totally naked: secrets of the editorial team and stories that noone knows yet
- Factor 5 Extra: The Turrican makers unpack - successes, pirated copies, comeback plans

Mario clone: Amigo the Fox (alpha version)
Erik Hogan's platformer "Amigo The Fox" (video) originally was a port of the old clone of "Mario Brothers" for DOS. Meanwhile the game which was created with the construction kit Scorpion Engine has been reworked avoiding copyright disputes. The game currently is in alpha state but already offers six playable levels. An Amiga 1200 is recommended but also on an A500 the game should smoothly run.
Update: (25.06.2020, 19:15, cg)
We initially described "Amiga The Fox" as a Redpill product, in fact it was created using the Scorpion Engine.

Programming language: FreePascal 3.2.0 for all Amiga systems
Marcus 'ALB42' Sackrow has released version 3.2 of the programming language FreePascal for the Amiga. By releasing this version the Amiga integration has been completed. Versions are available for AmigaOS 3/4, AROS i386/ARM and MorphOS.
Sackrow explained that he "did a lot of work on finding out what would be a good Amiga style package and which docs/texts should be added". He also wanted this archive to be released on the official website of the project - which was rejected for previsous versions. But he did not get any feedback for this releases and version 3.2 again was not added to the official download site.
This story also did lead to a lack of motivation: "It seems rather futile to continue to work on it, when nobody even really use it, which is still true, unfortunately, I have to admit."
