MorphOS: Spreedy 0.7
"Spreedy" written by Carsten Siegner is a spreedsheet editor which is a simple but more powerful version of the editor included in the text processing software Scriba. The main focus is on the compatibility with programms like Excel and OpenOffice, which can also open Spreedy-files.
Version 0.7 now can automatizes some processes in spreadsheets, e.g. "conditional format" of cells, which makes it possible to assign predeterminated formats to numbers or characters. Furthermore the function "=TEXT()" allows to automatically create calendars.
Loading and editing Excel documents now works without any faults and no longer cause crashes. Carsten Siegner also started to add other languages to the programm.

AmigaOS 4/MorphOS: Amazing Voxel Bird Saga (beta version)
Amazing Voxel Bird Saga is a free Warp3D-game for AmigaOS 4 and MorphOS. You have to guide a bird through the 3d landscape of Voxel-Land and "collect as many coins as possible" (video).
Due to the situation of the drivers, under AmigaOS 4 the game works on the computer of the developer (Sam460ex, Radeon 9200) very slowly and has graphic bugs.

3D print: Minimig-case in A1000-design available (Update)
Last year, Thomas 'Tommes' Koch introduced the prototype of a case for the Amiga clone Minimig which should be created in 3D print. Meanwhile two other prototypes has been created - the third prototype shown below can be ordered from the 3D service provider Shapeways :
According to Koch it might be necessary to rework the notches for the LEDs of the case. Apart from that the case was very well done and can be put together without any screws.
If there will be enough interested persons, Koch will organize a collective order for painting the cases. First he is going to paint one of his prototypes with the colours of an Amiga 1000 and publish pictures of them.
Update: (07:33, 06.04.14, snx)
As Thomas Koch informed us, the case has been updated. The version available in the shop is "Mark-III Revision 6". (cg) (Translation: dr)

Magazine: Retro Planet issue 3, any interest in English issue?
The Greek retro-magazine "Retro Planet" is published every three months. Topics of third issue (cover) are a test of an ACA 500, a report from the Greek Amiga meeting "Amicamp" as well as a review of the Battle Squadron remakes.
In a discussion at amigaworld.net, the publisher tries to find out if there is any interest in an English issue of the magazine. Two versions are possible: Translations of all Greek, original issues (four per year). Or a kind of "best Of"-magazine, which means, that there will be one single English issue per year.
An issue would cost about 10 Euro inclusive shipping.
