30.11.2022 - 'Wrong Way Back' - Game for AMIGA CD32 released and free for download
'Wrong Way Back' is an AMIGA CD32 adventure game about a woman trapped in a strange room trying to find her way home. How did she get there, how can she escape and most importantly why was she brought there? This game was made as an experiment in AMOS as Amiga CD32 development and will need to either be burned to CD-R to be played on a real machine or used with an Amiga emulator with CD32 BIOS ROMs. If you're trying to use a standard Amiga you will need a game pad with 2 buttons.

27.11.2022 - Amiga game 'Boxx Remake' released and free for download
Boxx is a small platform game that was originally made in 2014 for the Commodore Amiga. But it was made with Backbone so it had poor performance.
