Breakout game: BabeAnoid 2.5b1
Richard Fhager's Breakout game BabeAnoid was written in AMOS and released ten years ago. In 2003 version 2.0 was released. The next version 2.5 was never released because the author stopped developing Amiga software.

Upon request of an a1k.org-reader Fhager has provided a download link for a beta version BabeAnoid 2.5. This beta version is being not developed further and according to the author possibly has included "some special modes". BabeAnoid requires a 68020 as well as 2 MB RAM. It could be also played with computers with only 1 MB Chip-RAM if some preferences are set to a lower level.
