People asked me to set up a page with a donation button for my AmigaOS 4.0 porting projects.

I decided to make it a page where i collect all the ports i've done. I will also blog about ongoing ports and stuff so if you want to keep up, check in from time to time!

So here's that page and that donation button, put it to good use! ;)

ATM just a small fraction of my ports are added to the database, but it will grow every day, and when it's complete, I'll start posting about interesting things.

For Immediate Release

Amiga Seeding the Success Campaign from DiscreetFX


The Amiga computer represents a lot of firsts in the computer industry but it also represents many missed opportunities. Since the death of Commodore in 1994 the Amiga has descended into dark times. They say you learn most from your failures and not your successes and this is most certainly the case when it comes to Amiga. And yet some good things have happened as well. The Amiga market has branched off into some healthy competition with the arrival of MorphOS, AROS & Amiga OS 4.0. The Amiga emulation scene is alive and well with Amiga Forever from Cloanto. And lets not forget the hard work of the developers of Minimig, Natami & CloneA. Amiga developers have transcended the need of one company controlling the destiny of Amiga and have forged ahead in interesting ways.

Genie Naming Contest from DiscreetFX

Chicago, Illinois ? June 3rd, 2008

The Genie is finally out of the bottle. That's right Aladdin 4D now has it's own virtual character as part of a new branding campaign. You knew that would happen right? You can she her image on the Aladdin 4D blog.

After more than two years of work, Amiga Forever 2008 is being officially released today. This new version is the most significant upgrade ever in the Amiga Forever series. It sets new references in usability while more than tripling the featured content and providing easy access to a universe of free downloads.

My GL Blanker Modules and other projects are now available through svn.

Amigans.net announces a partnership with our members and the community of AmigaOS4 developers

"Time to support those who keep us moving forward"


Here's how it works:

Every month, Amigans.net will have a forum post asking our members to nominate two developers we should all donate to every month. We will then take your suggestions, discuss it internally, decide on the developers and then feature two Paypal Donate buttons below the main Amiga Future advert on the right, for one month.

One brand new GL based cracktro by Dark Puppy, and three new games!
Something for everyone, A platformer, a puzzler and a shooter!
