`20.May.2025`	Retro soccer game: "Mundialito" (update) Mundialito, a new retro-style arcade soccer game, is coming soon, and a new preview video has been released. The game, which is reminiscent of similar games from the 1980s, will feature action-packed 1-on-1 duels, power-ups, corners, free kicks, penalty kicks, and ten national teams, each with their own playing style. As things stand, Mundialito will require an Amiga 1200 with 2 MB RAM, can be played alone or in two-player mode, and is set to be published free of charge on itch.io shortly. Update: (22.05.2025, 22:15, cg) Mundialito can now be downloaded free of charge or for a small donation. Any Amiga with 2 MB RAM is required, but an A1200 is recommended for "better performance" - games against a human opponent require the latter configuration anyway. On the A500 Mini a compatibility problem has already been discovered, a separate fix is provided by the developer in the form of the file 'Mundialito_ol.uae.' (nba) [News message: 20.
