I've been wanting to do this for a long time 💜

I recorded the interactive music Stéphane Picq had created for the game Extase and put it online:

I've released a new version of my #Amiga analysis tool Aira Force. Play and analyse all (about half) of your favourite games. Download from https://howprice.itch.io/aira-force

Do you remember that on Amiga and Atari ST, players could play simultaneously with two mice plugged to the computer? ⚔️🖱️

Unfortunately, this is not possible on modern computers/OS 🪦

For example, here's a video of two people playing Lemmings together on Amiga. They each use a mouse 😀

I wish we could create games that could be played with several mice today.

Este software se llamaba DeluxePaint (EA, Electronic Arts) y ocupaba unos pocos disquetes. Se lanzó en 1985.

En los ordenadores #Amiga tenía el status de aplicación estrella. Era una aplicación tan útil que la gente compraba esos ordenadores solo por el programa.

Este programa es anterior al Photoshop para MacOS que saldría años después.

So happy to own the vinyl record of The Quest for the Time Bird 🤩 (La Quête de l'Oiseau du Temps in French)

I've digitized the music composed by Charles Callet for everyone to enjoy 🎶

Protrekkr 2.6.3 r1 for AmigaOS 4 – Released! https://oldschoolgameblog.com/2023/12/25/protrekkr-2-6-3-r1-for-amigaos-4-released/?utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=mastodon #Websites #Amiga @AmigaOldSkooler

"NOTE: The tracker can get quite CPU-intensive: a 1.5 GHz processor may be the bare minimum when replaying complex modules (16 tracks with all effects/polyphony on)."

Now you need a 1.5 GHz PPC to play 16-track mods?? 😨

#ChatGPT believes it's just a coincidence that the #Amiga Boing Ball appears on Croatia's national flag, not an official endorsement of the best computer EVER :amiga:

One particular flag caught my attention :amiga:

I entered the #Retrocomputing devroom too late for the talk on the PiStorm, a new CPU accelerator card for your old #Amiga 500.

Eat your hat, John! :amiga:

Proof reading and checking the code for the next @amigaaddict AMOS tutorial tonight. 😎

@coffe What's this awesome #Amiga desktop in a tab? 🤩

Starting to come together.

In case people were wondering:
"It requires AGA because the original game has 16 banks of 16 colors and a 256 color palette which is - added - dynamic. So ECS port would be quite tricky without rewriting the whole game."

@EC64 #retrogaming #retrocomputing #amiga

@deepskies @root42 I learned to code in BASIC on the #C64, then switched to an #Amiga 500, on which I started learning C.

The CPU on which I learned the most was definitely the 25MHz 68040 of my Amiga 4000. By this time I was in high-school, old enough to start coding seriously on AmigaOS.

This machine also ran a #FidoNet BBS and, later, #NetBSD.

This is the original CPU card of my A4000, photographed last week during a restoration with my friends. And, yes, it still works perfectly! ❤️

Was a GREAT C= club meeting last night at the Seattle Commodore Computer Club (SCCC) sea-ccc.org

- 2 mega65's in-da-houz
- C64 repair
- A600 + rare working dyesub printer
- Gorgeous C= MAX console (!!!)
- BEST people on the planet
Even did a side-by-side comparison of Briley Witch 2 on Mega65 (PAL) vs C64 (NTSC). Very cool!

@globalc Looks like The A500 Maxi is already on the roadmap!
