- Game is more friendly: help on each screen, for every level, tutorial...
- New transition effects between screens.
- New users management: more intuitive, allows to 12 users to play and save their games (instead of 6 previously).
- Two new characters available: Lisa and Miss Shen.
- Four new levels (training), so 64 levels available in full version.
- Graphical art enhancements.
- Vsync.
- In-game animations (when you loose a life, money, ...).
- You can choose sound effects without music.

- 27 avatars included.
- And much more...

AmigaKit: MP3-Hardware "MAS-Player" with integrated audio mixer
The British trader AmigaKit has published again the hardware-MP3-decoder MAS-Player which plays MP3-files on any Amiga with 68020-processor and 2 MB RAM.
In this new edition the sound output of the MP3-player is mixed with the audio signal of the Amiga so both signals are available at the output of the MAS-player.

Elbox: FastATA Mk IV with SATA-controller and CompactFlash-Slot
The fourth issue of Elbox' harddrive controller FastATA is available in three different versions - for Zorro III, Amiga 1200 or for the Elbox ZIV-device - and now has PATA- ("IDE") ports as well as a SATA port and a CompactFlash slot.
Additionally new software (ATA3.driver 11.0, FastATA4000 ver. 4.0) enclosed with the new controllers is optimized for best compatibility with Compact Flash cards and SATA drives.
CF cards controlled by a FastATA controller are seen in the Amiga system as a fixed (non-removable) device, which facilitates installation of bootable partitions on them.

MorphOS: Blender 2.62
Guillaume 'Yomgui' Roguez has published an update of his MorphOS-port of the 3D-graphic programm Blender which is available on his website as well as via Grunch. The PowerSDL.library is no longer required:
- Sync on 2.62 release tag
- Fixed locale issue for LC_NUMERIC (Forced to "C" now).
- Fixed crash caused by bad BLI_thread_queue_xxx() implementation in thread_mos.c (crash in material Preview).
- MEM_mapallocN() uses AllocVecAligned() for 16bytes alligned memory allocations (SIMD compat).
- Raytrace: Altivec support added.
- Added carve lib build (replace old boolean code)
- Added offical fix (#30158): Remesh crash
- Removed PowerSDL usage (was needed for sound, but nobody use it...)
