Platformer: Krogharr released
Michael 'Tigerskunk' Borrmann's platform game Krogharr was supposed to be released at the end of April (amiga-news.de reported), and now it's finally here: for around 13 euros, you can try to hold your own against carefully hand-pixelated opponents (video). The game requires an Amiga 500 with 1 MB of RAM.

In addition to purchasing the purely digital version, Poly.Play also offers a "boxed edition" with a floppy disk or CD³² version for pre-order. Delivery from 1 August 2025. (dr)

APC&TCP: Merchandising items for the 40th Amiga birthday
Press release: "The Amiga will soon be 40 years old, and we've been thinking long and hard about what we could do. Users who were at the ARC or saw photos from the ARC do already know what we're talking about. :)

Red Aqua Media designed last year what we think is a beautiful motif for the Amiga's 40th anniversary. We naturally took advantage of this opportunity, and almost twenty "40 Years of Amiga" merchandise items are now available in our online shop. Depending on whether we receive further requests or have other good ideas, there will be more "40 Years of Amiga" products available throughout the year." (snx)

Group of investors represented by Youtuber Perifractic buys Commodore
Three weeks ago, Youtuber Christian 'Perifractic' Simpson announced in a video that he had received an offer to take over Commodore B.V., the owner of the remaining Commodore trademark rights. In a second video published today he now announces the completed takeover: A group of unnamed angel investors has acquired the company for a low seven-figure sum. He himself is now the acting CEO, but the purchase price has not yet been paid - the company is still looking for investors. In the half-hour video, Simpson lists a whole series of former Commodore employees (Michael Tomczyk, Bil Herd, David Pleasance, support staff such as James Harrison and Hans Olsen) or actor Thomas Middleditch ("Silicon Valley") as future "advisors". A financial participation of the community is not yet possible, as the international legal hurdles are too high. Commodore plans to revive the time before social networks and artificial intelligence, when computer technology was still considered a utopia rather than the scourge of mankind, with new "retro-futuristic" products. The years around the turn of the millennium are cited as a model several times.

There already seems to be a pretty clear idea of what Commodore's first "retro-futuristic" product will be - but Simpson won't reveal exactly what it is until the next video. Once again, however, the Youtuber praises the Linux distribution Commodore OS Vision, which was created during the Commodore USA era by former Commodore USA and future Commodore CTO Leo Nigro. This time it is explicitly described as "retro-futuristic", analogous to the planned hardware product.

In addition to further investors, in order to actually be able to pay the sum called for the sale, the company is currently looking for a social media manager and "merchandise designers".

Editor's note: The Dutch company Commodore B.V., which Simpson and his investors have acquired, owns the "Commodore" trade marks and the "Chickenlips" logo. The rights to the Amiga brands and all 8-bit and Amiga software went to Gateway after the ESCOM bankruptcy and are now owned by Michael Battilana's Amiga Corp (cg) (Translation: cg)
